As I was walking round Grosvenor Square Not a chill to the winter, but a nip to the air From the other direction she was calling my eye It could be an illusion, but I might as well try Might as well try She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes I knew without asking she was into the blues She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls I knew right away she was not like other girls Other girls In the thick of the evening when the dealing got rough Too pat to opеn and too cool to bluff As I picked up my matches and was closing the door I had onе of those flashes: Id been there before Been there before I aint often right but Ive never been wrong It seldom turns out the way it does in the song Once in a while you get shown the light In the strangest of places if you look at it right Well, there aint nothing wrong with the way she moves Or scarlet begonias or a touch of the blues And theres nothing wrong with the look thats in her eye Had to learn the hard way to let her pass by Let her pass by The wind in the willows played tea for two The sky was yellow and the sun was blue Strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand Everybodys playing in the Heart of Gold Band Heart of Gold Band
Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand Watching flies and children on the street And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I smile Theres a little boy who wants to shine my feet And its three days ride from Bakersfield and I dont know why I came I guess I came to keep from paying dues So instead Ive got a bottle and a girl whos just fourteen And a damn good case of the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When the devil wants to take it all away? Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today Shе said her name was Billie Jеan and she was fresh in town I didnt know a stage line ran from Hell She had raven hair, a ruffled dress, a necklace made of gold All the French perfume youd care to smell She took me up into her room and whispered in my ear Go on, my friend, do anything you choose Now Im payin for those happy hours I spent there in her arms With a lifetimes worth of the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When the devil wants to take it all away? Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today And then a man rode into town, some thought he was the law Billie Jean was waiting when he came She told me he would take her, if I didnt use my gun But Id have no one but myself to blame I went down to those dusty streets, blood was on my mind I guess that stranger hadnt heard the news Cause I shot first and killed him, Lord, he didnt even draw And it made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When he lets a woman hold him in her hands? You just might find yourself out there on horseback in the dark Just riding and running across those desert sands, yeah, yeah

Morning comes, she follows the path to the river shore Lightly sung, her song is the latch on the mornings door See the sun sparkle in the reeds, silver beads, pass into the sea She comes from the town where they call her the woodcutters daughter Shes brown as the bank where she kneels down to gather her water And she bears it away with a love that the river has taught her Let it flow, let it flow, widе and clear Round and round, the cut of the plow in thе furrowed field Seasons round, the bushels of corn and the barley meal Broken ground, open and beckoning to the spring Black dirt live again The plowman is broad as the back of the land hes sowing As he dances the circular track of the plow ever knowing That the work of his days measures more than the planting and growing Let it grow, let it grow, greatly yield What shall we say, shall we call it by a name? As well to count the angels dancing on a pin Water bright as the sky from which it came And the name is on the earth that takes it in We will not speak but stand inside the rain And listen to the thunder shout, I am! I am! I am! I am! So it goes, we make what we make since the world began Nothing more, the love of the women, the work of man Seasons round, creatures great and small Up and down as we rise and fall What shall we say, shall we call it by a name? As well to count the angels dancing on a pin Water bright as the sky from which it came And the name is on the earth that takes it in We will not speak but stand inside the rain And listen to the thunder shout, I am! I am! I am! I am! Well be right back

As I was walking round Grosvenor Square Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air From the other direction she was calling my eye It could be an illusion but I might as well try Might as well try She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes Knew without asking she was into the blues She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls I knew right away she was not like other girls Other girls In the heat of the evening when the dеaling got rough She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff I picked up my matchеs and was closing the door I had one of those flashes Id been there before Been there before I aint often right but Ive never been wrong It seldom turns out the way it does in the song Once in a while you get shown the light In the strangest of places if you look at it right Aint nothing wrong with the way she moves Or scarlet begonias or a touch of the blues Theres nothing wrong with the look thats in her eye I had to learn the hard way to let her pass by Let her pass by The wind in the willows played tea for two The sky was yellow and the sun was blue Strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand Everybody is playing in the Heart of Gold Band Heart of Gold Band

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girl Night time would find me in Rosas Cantina Music would play and Felina would whirl Black as the night were the eyes of Felina Wicked and evil while casting a spell My love was strong for this Mexican maiden I was in love, but in vain I could tell One night a wild young cowboy came in Wild as the West Texas wind Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing With wicked Felina, the girl that I love So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden Down went his hand for thе gun that he wore My challengе was answered in less than a heartbeat The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor Just for a moment I stood there in silence Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there I had but one chance and that was to run Out through the back door of Rosas I ran Out where the horses were tied I picked a good one, he looked like he could run Up on his back and away I did ride Just as fast as I Could from the West Texas town of El Paso Out through the badlands of New Mexico Back in El Paso my life would be worthless Everythings gone in life, nothing is left But its been so long since Ive seen the young maiden My love is stronger than my fear of death I saddled up and away I did go, riding alone in the dark Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart And at last here I Am on the hill overlooking El Paso I can see Rosas Cantina below My love is strong and it pushes me onward Down off the hill to Felina I go Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys Off to my left ride a dozen or more Shouting and shooting, I cant let them catch me Ive got to make it to Rosas back door Something is dreadfully wrong, for I feel A deep burning pain in my side Its getting harder to stay in the saddle Im getting weary, unable to ride But my love for Felina is strong And I writhe where Ive fallen Though I am weary, I cant stop to rest I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle I feel the bullet go deep in my chest From out of nowhere, Felina has found me Kisses my cheek as she kneels by my side Cradled by two loving arms that Ill die for One little kiss and Felina goodbye

Your rain falls like crazy fingers Peals of fragile thunder, keeping time Recall the days that still are to come Some sing blue Hang your heart on laughing willow Stray down to the floor Deep sea of love Beneath the cool dark waves of the sea Swift undertow Life may be sweeter for this, I dont know See how it feels in the end While Lady Lullaby sing plainly for you Soft, strong, sweet and true Cloud hands reaching from a rainbow Tapping at the window Touch your hair So swift and bright Strange figures of light Float in air Who can stop what must arrive now? Something new is waiting to be born Dark as the night Youre still by my side Shining side Gone are the days we stopped to decide Where we should go, we just ride Gone are the broken eyes we saw through in dreams Gone, both dream and lie Life may be sweeter for this, I dont know Feels like it might be alright While Lady Lullaby sings plainly for you Love still rings true Midnight on a carousel ride Reaching for the gold ring down inside Never could reach it It just slips away when I try

Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand Watching flies and children on the street And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I smile Theres a little boy who wants to shine my feet And its three days ride from Bakersfield and I dont know why I came I guess I came to keep from paying dues So instead Ive got a bottle and a girl whos just fourteen And a damn good case of the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When the devil wants to take it all away? Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today She said her name was Billie Jean and she was fresh in town I didnt know a stage line ran from Hell She had raven hair, a ruffled dress, a necklace made of gold All the French perfume youd care to smell She took me up into her room and whispered in my ear Go on, my friend, do anything you choose Now Im payin for those happy hours I spent there in her arms With a lifetimes worth of the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When the devil wants to take it all away? Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today And then a man rode into town, some thought he was the law Billie Jean was waiting when he came She told me he would take her if I didnt use my gun But Id have no one but myself to blame I went down to those dusty streets, blood was on my mind I guess that stranger hadnt heard the news Cause I shot first and killed him, Lord, he didnt even draw And he made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali Blues, yeah Is there anything a man dont stand to lose When he lets a woman hold him in her hands? You just might find yourself out there on horseback in the dark Just riding and running across those desert sands
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girl Night time would find me in Rosas Cantina Music would play and Felina would whirl Black as the night were the eyes of Felina Wicked and evil while casting a spell My love was strong for this Mexican maiden I was in love, but in vain I could tell One night a wild young cowboy came in Wild as the West Texas wind Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing With wicked Felina, the girl that I love So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden Down went his hand for thе gun that he wore My challengе was answered in less than a heartbeat The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor Just for a moment I stood there in silence Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there I had but one chance and that was to run Out through the back door of Rosas I ran Out where the horses were tied I picked a good one, he looked like he could run Up on his back and away I did ride Just as fast as I Could from the West Texas town of El Paso Out through the badlands of New Mexico Back in El Paso my life would be worthless Everythings gone in life, nothing is left But its been so long since Ive seen the young maiden My love is stronger that my fear of death I saddled up and away I did go, riding alone in the dark Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart And at last here I Am on the hill overlooking El Paso I can see Rosas Cantina below My love is strong and it pushes me onward Down off the hill to Felina I go Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys Off to my left ride a dozen or more Shouting and shooting, I cant let them catch me Ive got to make it to Rosas back door Something is dreadfully wrong, for I feel A deep burning pain in my side Its getting harder to stay in the saddle Im getting weary, unable to ride But my love for Felina is strong And I writhe where Ive fallen Though I am weary, I cant stop to rest I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle I feel the bullet go deep in my chest From out of nowhere, Felina has found me Kisses my cheek as she kneels by my side Cradled by two loving arms that Ill die for One little kiss and Felina goodbye
All the years combine, they melt into a dream A broken angel sings from a guitar In the end theres just a song, comes crying up the night Through all the broken dreams and vanished years Stella Blue Stella Blue When all the cards are down, theres nothing left to see Theres just the pavement left and broken dreams And theres just a song, comes crying like the night Through all the broken dreams and shattered youth Stella Blue Stella Blue Ive stayed in every blue light cheap hotel Cant win for trying Dust off those rusty strings just one more time Gonna make them shine It all rolls into one, nothing comes for free Theres nothing you can hold for very long Then you hear that song, come crying like the queen It seems like all this life was just a dream Stella Blue Stella Blue Stella Blue Stella Blue
