    This song, to me, isn't about suicide at all. Though it certainly can allude to it, I feel it's about the idea of not fearing death. Living each day to its full capacity. Living life to its fullest. We're all going to die at some point, so why be afraid of what is inevitable? Live life to its fullest, for when the Reaper comes knocking, you can be happy with how you lived your life.

    That's the meaning of this song to me.

    Really? Do we actually KNOW anyone killed themselves because of this song? Did anyone commit murder after hearing Marty Robins' El Paso back in 1959? And for what it's worth, there's nothing in this song actually telling anyone to commit suicide. It's about not fearing death. A songwriter can't help it if somebody misinterprets his or her work.

    When Buck goes to Heaven, the Man Upstairs is going to ask Jimi to sit out a set or two so He can dig THIS.

    The song is about being seduced by evil.

    does anybody know about this song being quoted in the opening chapter of Stephen Kings masterwork, 'The Stand'?. i just wondered if anybody out there was a big fan of S.K. like i am, and could appreciate the relevance of the quote to the character of Nadine, which i found hauntingly appropriate? i think that is his magnum opus, as much as i appreciate the dark tower ? just wondered...
