El Paso is a country and western ballad written and originally recorded by Marty Robbins, and first released on Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs in September 1959.
I don't recall who sang the song, he sings, but he feels a supernatural connection to the story: could it be that I could be the cowboy in this mystery, he asks, suggesting a past life. This song was a country number one. The arrangement includes riffs and themes from the previous two El Paso songs.
