Lyrics

[00:20.340] She don't like her eggs all runny
[00:22.900] She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
[00:25.930] She looks down her nose at money
[00:28.970] She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
[00:32.100] She's my baby I'm her honey
[00:35.240] I'm never gonna let her go
[00:39.200]
[00:41.800] He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
[00:44.670] I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
[00:47.990] He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
[00:50.900] Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
[00:54.090] He's my baby
[00:55.980] And I'm his honey
[00:57.560] Never gonna let him go
[01:00.160]
[01:01.690] In spite of ourselves
[01:03.460] We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
[01:06.950] Against all odds
[01:09.850] Honey, we're the big door prize
[01:13.550] We're gonna spite our noses
[01:17.280] Right off of our faces
[01:19.650] There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
[01:23.300] Dancin' in our eyes
[01:25.640]
[01:52.500] She thinks all my jokes are corny
[01:55.210] Convict movies make her horny
[01:58.220] She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
[02:00.910] Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs
[02:04.230] She takes a lickin'
[02:06.080] And keeps on tickin'
[02:07.570] I'm never gonna let her go
[02:11.680] He's got more balls than a big brass monkey
[02:15.460] He's a whacked out weirdo and a lovebug junkie
[02:18.700] Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon
[02:21.630] Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon
[02:25.390] He's my baby I don't mean maybe
[02:28.530] Never gonna let him go
[02:32.070] In spite of ourselves
[02:34.630] We'll end up a sittin' on a rainbow
[02:37.660] Against all odds
[02:40.940] Honey, we're the big door prize
[02:45.050] We're gonna spite our noses
[02:47.920] Right off of our faces
[02:51.060] There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
[02:54.380] Dancin' in our eyes
[02:57.480] In spite of ourselves
[02:59.520] We'll end up a sittin' on a rainbow
[03:03.520] Against all odds
[03:05.810] Honey, we're the big door prize
[03:09.310] We're gonna spite our noses
[03:19.180] Right off of our faces
[03:22.590] There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
[03:25.940] Dancin' in our eyes
[03:29.100] There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
[03:31.800] Dancin' in our eyes
[03:33.630]
