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

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 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

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
