I met coe when i was 13 with my dad at at a harley rally in cherokee, N.C. for the first time. saw him twice after that. This song makes me love nancy willams soooo much. wish she understood it..
Of all the things that my wife chose for our wedding, I got to choose the song we danced to at the reception. This was the song I chose. I sincerely felt this described my thoughts and feelings about her not only then but also today 13+ years later.
All is Felt with Emotions. As he had wrote them for me. Kat all we had felt inside. Never thought these would become Memorial Songs. Kat I am ready to go Now.. come send angels to bring me home with you. It's time. Rest You In Peace..

I'd love to see this Austin City Limits concern in its entirety. The video for "if only your eyes could lie" was epic and used to be on on YT but seems to have been taken down. Please repost if you have access to that one. Thanks!
I agree with wabberwookie: I hear an amazing similarity between "Would you lay with me" and "If I needed you." Not having heard either one a whole lot previously, I only now realized they were two separate songs. No problem: now I have two great songs I love, where before there was just one, so I thought.
Would you lay with me in a field of stone If my needs were strong would you lay with me Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear In the midnight hour if my lips were dry Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand Wipe the blood away from my dying hand If I give my self to you Will you bathe with me in the stream of life When the moon is full will you bathe with me Will you still love me when I am down and out In my time of trials will you stand by me Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand Wipe the blood away from my dying hand If I give my self to you Would you lay with me in field of stone Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear Would you wet them dear In the stream of life
That's because Coe heard TVZ singing it at a party and asked if he would mind if he did something with it. TVZ said sure, just be sure to give me credit. Coe wrote this using IINY as the blueprint and then didn't give TVZ any of the songwriting credit. When later asked why he didn't take legal action to get his name on there as a co=writer TVZ said, "well I ride around the country by myself in a van, he rides around the country with a motorcycle gang." Logical thinking.
I stand corrected.... You can't bitch slap a fucking computer. Then again..😂. I'm hard of hearing. So I used close captioning. The "Artificial" intelligence insulted one of my favorite artist. Pissed me off 😑
When you can stand there with just a guitar and have the room so quiet you can hear a pin drop as you sing. That's talent.
I do agree. you Gotta love DAC
Tell me who writes lyrics like this , now? Pure poetry.
Single greatest country performance of the 20th Century. Coe is Legend!
My favorite performance of his that I have ever seen.
Great American story teller. This man is a national treasure.
Brings tears to my eyes every time
How is he not more celebrated. He is amazing.
cause he was rebel against the music Industry
He's been in prison & has been an active member of the Outlaws MC for 40 years give or take...

Listen to his song Dakota the Dancing Bear. Its all about the system he went against.
He was extremely popular from the mid 1970s to around 1990 so he had a darn good run, more than most artists.
Cause he was really a hard core biker and trust me all the ones that I know 🥰 adore this man
David always had a superb voice.
gives me goosebumps, this version...
Awesome...the way country music carved its love in our hearts.
I just love this mans music.
I love this man. Absolute legend
These 2 verses kill me
" Will you still love me when I am down and out
In my time of trials will you stand by me "
I met coe when i was 13 with my dad at at a harley rally in cherokee, N.C. for the first time. saw him twice after that. This song makes me love nancy willams soooo much. wish she understood it..
Truly amazing.. a breathtaking performance!
so beautiful
love it ! old memories!
Your comment made me smile. Same here for me. Good memories.
God bless

Awesome
Don't real this rawness anymore! Incredible!!!!
The best country music artist of all time... no one else compares
You’re delusional lol
@@adamschaffer239 who’s better??
Piece of fine art
I sang this song together with my wife at my marriage day in the church. Crazy!!!!
That's the greatest performance of our time before Jesus comes back
The year I was born! This is awesome.
truly the best awesome raw emotion. now I'm going to learn this song.
Amazing talent
Me in a nutshell. Much love David Allen Coe!

A little Fire and Rain intro... wow. Fucking amazing.
david allen cole is a great one
Who is David Allen Cole?
Hey Texas. Coe should be safe for instructions ❤️🎵🤠😘

Both his song and Tanya Tucker's song ( same title)
Outlived the song
This is better than everything
I wholeheartedly agree

Coe used the melody of If I Needed You when he wrote it. If life were fair TVZ would have gotten a co write credit for it, but life is never fair.
There is a spirituality that that you can't explain
David was not bullshittin on that one !
Not one bit!
Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my needs were strong would you lay with me
Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear
In the midnight hour if my lips were dry
Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give my self to you
Will you bathe with me in the stream of life
When the moon is full will you bathe with me
Will you still love me when I am down and out
In my time of trials will you stand by me
Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give my self to you
Would you lay with me in field of stone
Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear
Would you wet them dear
In the stream of life
Amen!
SIC 'EM, DAVID
Still bad ass.
Amazing voice awesome performance! It looked like David wasn't to happy with the phaser though..
I love you always Tane' Robin Sikes
Miss my ol friend. Jessi
@mickray18 Did u know Tommy Irwin pretty good i met him a few months ago he awesome on steel???

i think i got that backdrop figured out but why doesnt someone who knows for sure tell me where this is at?
@CRLucas87 i agree with you, thumbs up doesn't work so i commented instead
Is he rockin a confederate uniform?? That is badass
Yes. Yes , he is. That is an incredibly badass Stonewall Jackson coat.
nice thomas jackson style there dac
He wrote this for his brother-in-law to recite to his bride at their wedding. Later he recorded this.
What;s with the James Taylor open?
No clue but I love it.
DAC is the Bob Dylan of Country...
This kind of talent is dead and gone now... thank god for UA-cam!
I stand corrected.... You can't bitch slap a fucking computer. Then again..😂. I'm hard of hearing. So I used close captioning. The "Artificial" intelligence insulted one of my favorite artist. Pissed me off 😑
Stole it fair and square didnt he
No he wrote that song and gave it to Tanya tucker
He wrote it jackass
Austin city limits.
Johnny's got nothing on this.
