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

David Allan Coe è un cantautore e chitarrista statunitense nato nel 1939, considerato uno dei pilastri della musica country outlaw degli anni '70. Conosciuto per il suo stile diretto, le canzoni provocatorie e la personalità irriverente, Coe ha sfidato le convenzioni del genere country tradizionale, abbracciando temi controversi come l'alcolismo, la violenza e la vita al limite. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "You Never Even Call Me By My Name", "Longhaired Redneck" e "The Ride". Coe ha collaborato con artisti di spicco come Willie Nelson e Johnny Cash, contribuendo a definire l'estetica del country outlaw. La sua influenza si estende fino ai giorni nostri, ispirando generazioni di musicisti country che hanno seguito le sue orme.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
