John Prine – In Spite Of Ourselves Chords

She don’t like her eggs all runny
She thinks a’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

Well he ain’t got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffing my undies
He ain’t real sharp but he gets things done
Drinks his beer like it’s oxygen
But 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’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 she shaves her legs
She takes a lickin’, and keeps on tickin’
I’m never gonna let her go

Well he’s got more balls than a big brass monkey
He’s a wacked out weirdo and a lovebug junkie
Sly as a fox, crazy as a loon
Payday comes and he’s a’howling at the moon
But 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’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

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
