SONG:Just To Prove My Love For You

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...
