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

By 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
