Out in New Mexico many long years ago
There in a shack on the desert one night in a storm
Amid streaks of lightnin' and loud desert thunder to a young Mexican couple a baby was born
Just as the baby cried thunder and lightnin' died
Moon gave its light to the world and the stars did the same
Mother and Father both proud of the daughter that heaven had sent them
Faleena was this baby's name
When she was seventeen bothered by crazy dreams she ran away from the shack and left them to roam
Father and Mother both asked one another what made her run away
What made Faleena leave home
Tired of the desert nights poverty, grief and strife she ran away late one night in the moon's golden gleam
She didn't know where she'd go but she'd get there and she would find happiness if she would follow her dream
After she ran away she went to Sante Fe and in the year that she stayed there she learned about life
In just a little while she learned that with a smile she could have pretty clothes
She could be any man's wife
Rich men romanced her
They dined and they danced her
She understood men and she treated them all just the same
A form that was fine and rare
Dark shinin' glossy hair
Lovely to look at
Faleena was this woman's name
Restless in Sante Fe she had to get away to any town where the lights had a much brighter glow
One cowboy mentioned the town of El Paso
They never stopped dancin' and money like whiskey did flow
She bought a one-way
A ticket from Sante Fe
Three days and nights on a stage with a rest now and then
She didn't mind that
She knew she would find that her new life would be more excitin' than where she had been
The stage made its last stop up there on the mountain top to let her see all of the lights at the foot of the hill
Her world was brighter and deep down inside her
An uncontrolled beatin'
Her young heart just wouldn't be still
She got a hotel
A room at the Lily Belle
Quickly she changed to a form-fittin' black satin dress
Every man stopped to stare at this form fine and rare
Even the women remarked of the charm she possessed
Dancin' and laughter was what she was after and
Rosa's cantina had lights with love in the gleam
That's what she hunted and that's what she wanted
Rosa's was one place a nice girl would never be seen
It was the same way it was back in Sante Fe
Men would make fools of themselves at the thought of romance
Rosa took heed of
The place was in need of this kind of excitement so she paid Faleena to dance
A year passed and maybe more and then through the swingin' doors
Came a young cowboy so tall and so handsomely dressed
This one was new in town
Hadn't been seen around
He was so different
He wasn't like all of the rest
Faleena danced close to him then threw a rose to him
Quickly he walked to her table and there he sat down
And in a day or so wherever folks would go they'd see this young cowboy showin' Faleena the town
Six weeks he went with her
Each minute spent with her but he was insanely jealous of glances she'd give
Inside he was hurtin' from all of her flirtin'
That was her nature and that was the way that she lived
She flirted one night
It started a gun-fight
And after the smoke cleared away on the floor lay a man
Faleena's young lover had shot down another and he had to leave there so out through the back door he ran
The next day at five o'clock she heard a rifle shot
Quickly she ran to the door that was facin' the pass
She saw her cowboy
Her wild-ridin' cowboy
Low in the saddle
Her cowboy was ridin' in fast
She ran to meet him
To kiss and to greet him
He saw her and motioned her back with a wave of his hand
Bullets were flyin'
Faleena was cryin' as she saw him fall from the saddle and into the sand
Faleena knelt near him to hold and to hear him
When she felt the warm blood that flowed from the wound in his side
He raised to kiss her and she heard him whisper
Never forget me Faleena
It's over, goodbye
Quickly she grabbed for the six-gun that he wore and screamin' in anger and placin' the gun to her breast
Bury us both deep and maybe we'll find peace
And pullin' the trigger she fell 'cross the dead cowboy's chest
Out in El Paso whenever the wind blows if you listen closely at night you will hear in the wind
A woman is cryin'
It's not the wind sighin'
Old timers tell you
Faleena is callin' for him
You'll hear them talkin' and you'll hear them walkin'
You'll hear them laugh and you'll look but there's no one around
Don't be alarmed
There is really no harm there
It's only the young cowboy showin' Faleena the town
