LyricsIn Spite of Ourselves

She don't like

her eggs all runny

She thinks crossin'

her legs is funny

She looks down

her nose at money

She gets it on

like the Easter Bunny

She's my baby I'm her honey

I'm never gonna let her go

He ain't got laid

in a month of Sundays

I caught him once

and he was sniffin' my undies

He ain't too sharp

but he gets things done

Drinks his beer like it's oxygen

He's my baby and I'm his honey

I'm never gonna let him go

In spite of ourselves

we'll end up

a-sittin' on a rainbow

Against all odds

honey we're the big door prize

We're gonna spite

our noses right off of our faces

There won't be nothin'

but big old hearts

dancin' in our eyes

She thinks all my jokes are corny

Convict movies make her horny

She likes ketchup

on her scrambled eggs

Swears like a sailor

when she shaves her legs

She takes a lickin'

and keeps on tickin'

I'm never gonna let her go

He's got more balls

than a big brass monkey

He's a whacked-out weirdo

and a lovebug junkie

Sly as a fox

crazy as a loon

Payday comes

and he's a-howlin' at the moon

He's my baby I don't mean maybe

I'm never gonna let him go

In spite of ourselves

we'll end up

a-sittin' on a rainbow

Against all odds

honey we're the big door prize

We're gonna spite

our noses right off of our faces

There won't be nothin'

but big old hearts

dancin' in our eyes

In spite of ourselves

we'll end up

a-sittin' on a rainbow

Against all odds

honey we're the big door prize

We're gonna spite

our noses right off of our faces

There won't be nothin'

but big old hearts

dancin' in our eyes

There won't be nothin'

but big old hearts

dancin' in our eyes

In spite of ourselves
