In Spite Of Ourselves

(album: In Spite Of Ourselves - 1999)

She don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossing 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 sniffing 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
Never gonna let him go

In spite of ourselves
We'll end up a'sitting 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 nothing but big old hearts
Dancing 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 shaves her legs
She takes a licking
And keeps on ticking
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 and crazy as a loon
Payday comes and he's howling at the moon
He's my baby I don't mean maybe
Never gonna let him go

In spite of ourselves
We'll end up a sitting 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 nothing but big old hearts
Dancing in our eyes.
There won't be nothing but big old hearts
Dancing in our eyes.

[Spoken:]
In spite of ourselves
