Just To Prove My Love For You

David Allan Coe


I'd walk across Kansas in a New York minute 
Climb the Colorado mountains in the fall
Crawl through Arizona like a flatland lizard 
If I thought it'd do me any good at all
I could swim Lake Erie with my hands tied behind me
Eat a West Virginia coal miner's shoes
Drink the Mississippi River if it took a month of Sundays 
Just to prove my love for you
I remember well the first time that I kissed you
Cause the things ain't been the same ever since
You got me thinkin' I could eat a ten penny nail And spit out a barbed wire fence
Now there ain't a livin' creature gonna ever come between us
I'd fight lions snakes and gorillas too
And if that ain't enough 
We'll start all over just to prove my love for you
[ fiddle - steel ]
I could ride my pony through the eye of a hurricane 
Climb Mount Everest on a string
Jump Niagara Falls in a burnin' barrel 
And bring you back a hoop smoke ring
Wrestle alligators in the Okefenokee 
There's nothin' I wouldn't do
If you just say the word I'll catch 
That Great Speckled Bird and bring it back to you
I remember well the first time...
I'd walk across Kansas in a New York minute...
