Just To Prove My Love To You lyrics - David Allan Coe

I could walk across Kansas in a New York minute
Climb the Colorado mountains in the fall
Crawl through Arizona like a flat land 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 to you

[Chorus:]
I remember well the first time I kissed you
Cuss 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
Well there ain't a living creature gonna ever come between us
I fight lions snakes and gorillas too
If that ain't enough I'd start it all over
Just to prove my love to you

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 ya back a hoop smoke ring
Wrestle alligators in the Okefenokee
There's nothin' that I wouldn't do
If you just say the word
I'd catch that great speckled bird
And bring it back to you

[Chorus:]
I remember well the first time I kissed you
'cause things ain't been the same ever since
You got me thinking I could eat a ten-penny nail
And spit out a barbed wire fence
Well there ain't a living creature gonna ever come between us
I fight lions snakes and gorillas too
If that ain't enough I'd start it all over
Just to prove my love to you

I could walk across Kansas in a New York minute
Climb the Colorado mountains in the fall
Crawl through Arizona like a flat land 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
