[Lyric] El Paso (Charlie Marie)

[Verse 1]
El Paso was where we met
Where you walked away
Guess our love was just an act
A part for you to play
The cactus had blossomed
The river on the rise
I never saw it coming
It was all a waste of time

[Chorus]
He left me in a lone-star state
He left me on a sunny day
He left me with the desert sand
He left me at the Rio Grande
He left me for a man

[Verse 2]
You love who you love
Baby that's not a crime
But a cheater is a cheater
Your dirty laundry's on the line
High on a mountain
I see us for all we were
Since our sun is setting
Guess I'll just watch it burn
[Chorus]
He left me in a lone-star state
He left me on a sunny day
He left me with the desert sand
He left me at the Rio Grande
He left me for a man

[Bridge]
Thought you were a soft place to land
When we danced to that Mariachi band
But you can't always stand by your man

[Chorus]
He left me in a lone-star state
He left me on a sunny day
He left me with the desert sand
He left me at the Rio Grande
He left me for a man
