In Spite of Ourselves with Iris DeMent (John Prine) Intro: C F C G C C She don't like her eggs all runny She thinks crossin' her legs is funny F She looks down her nose at money C She gets it on like the Easter Bunny G She's my baby I'm her honey C G C I'm never gonna let her go C He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies F He ain't too sharp but he gets things done C Drinks his beer like it's oxygen G He's my baby And I'm his honey C G C Never gonna let him go Chorus: F In spite of ourselves C We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow G Against all odds C G C Honey, we're the big door prize F We're gonna spite our noses C Right off of our faces G There won't be nothin' but big old hearts C G C Dancin' in our eyes. Instrumental: F C F C F C G C G C 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 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 wacked out werido and a lovebug junkie Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon He's my baby I don't mean maybe Never gonna let him go Repeat Chorus: 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.
