Lyrics:
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
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, 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 ol' 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
A whacked-out weirdo and a love bugged 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

My beautiful wife and I at 2:09 and our good friends Dale and Lori at 1:05. Such fun times. We all miss John Prine tremendously. God Bless him.

[@michaelcourt1042]

You both are lovely couples!

[@L8nitedave]

Well it happens to all of us but the good news is yuall all won the door prize!

[@jeremylawson7086]

Back when my wife was my new girlfriend we were just drifting around the country and this song came on. It was so fitting. Fast forward 6 years and now I'm a commercial fisherman sitting on my boat damn near in tears listening to this. I can't wait to get home and see her. I probably don't tell her enough but there's no life for me without her.

[@chrissylibertyk9]

🥲

[@DanielScanlon463]

This song moves me to tears. Could be the mushrooms but, at 61 years old I just pray I can find someone to spend the rest of my life with.

[@fredwilley3886]

It's the mushrooms 🍄 and stay free my friend.

[@skynetlabs]

Get off drugs and you might find someone.

[@canadianlstan]

This will be the first song my future husband and I dance to at our wedding next week. We can't wait!

[@christopherbowen3055]

What a blessed duet. The very timbre of their voices offset each other in a perfect kind of wondrous harmony. Iris is a natural for her part singing one of John's greatest songs.

[@codycrooks4053]

The ketchup on the scramble eggs line is pure genius. Heaven is a better place now with john there

Iris Dement is one excellent singer/songwriter. If you get a chance to hear her live, take it.

[@howlando6989]

[@tonihill100]

[@MuntheDane]

"more blessings than one man can stand' Thanks for everything you left behind for us to ponder. Give Steve a big hug from all of us.

[@nevadiva36]

Never heard of this gentleman until I heard the news of his untimely passing this morning and the newscast played this song. I sent the song to my husband and said this is our song now! He agreed.

[@philipsweet581]

Hello, how are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.

[@4orrcountry]

Nevadiva - Hope you've continued to explore John's music.

[@averat84]

The song my wife and I danced to when we were married! And his song, "Clocks and Spoons", is the first song that would stop our infant (at the time) daughter from crying. I've been singing to her ever since.

[@921ktown]

No words for the man that sure had a way with all of them. Thanks John, fish and a whistle.

[@workingtoseethelight8244]

JOHN PRINE I JUST CRY AND CRY AND CRY Tears of intelligence! I love John Prine!

[@mattmasonsinger1966]

New to this guy, great lyrics, saddened to learn he passed during Covid when I'm just discovering this clever songster. Look forward to hearing more. RIP.

[@alia.1041]

My mother loves his music, she had me listen to several of his songs the other day when we found out he'd died. This was my favorite. Rest easy John

[@Lazarus142]

Rest in Peace, John! My parents used to listen to this when I was young, I remember it fondly. Now, I listen to it with the woman I love. You'll be remembered, Sir Prine, I promise you that! Every time we hear this song.

[@slydogmania]

I simply cannot imagine life without John Prine, soothes my soul and inspires my imagination. I harbour big dreams of one day performing Beethoven sonatas at Carnegie Hall for a Concert For The Homeless, along with finding love and happiness yet no matter what I always come back to John Prine,

[@mathmusic1490]

I feel the artist in you.............

[@ByrdieSue]

This song bring up so many emotions for me. John Prine is my dad's favorite artist. He played this album on road trips in my childhood. I still listen to it when ever I drive.

[@evemaiola7131]

Well miss you John. In spite of ourselves.

[@rosemarydaughter]

Can't help listening to this and thinking of the times my Brother and our Dad would be in the Ole Koval Dining room and listening to John Prine* Rest in Peace...Dad* Couldn't help but pick up my phone and call my Brother back in St. Louis, Missouri and say... " Hey..I love ya Bunches* "

[@chuckmartinez769]

[@danferguson2724]

Love you.

[@HighLeeCoyote]

I love the nod at the end to Spanish Pipedream--just another of my many favorites from the greatest American songwiriter. I miss him, but am so thankful that he lived a long life and wasn't taken from us too soon like the members of the 27 club. He kept turning out gems until the end.

[@MarthaFellows66]

This was my husband and my song before he died. (Then I mostly sang Blue Umbrella.) Praying for you!!! Please get well! 😻

[@darproud8570]

I'm getting married June 10th. John Prine, you are an amazing human being and the world is less without you. We're dancing to my friend. In Spite of Ourselves:)

Wonderful wonderful wonderful. I heard the song on bbc6music and simply had to check it out. Must say I am no real big fan of Country music, but John Prine and Iris Dement's In Spite Of Ourselves. The lyrics are gritty and its so sincere I absolutely adore this song. Thank You R.I.P Mr John Prine. The World is less of a place without you Sir.

[@gordon4385]

R.I.P. John. Grew up in Maywood. Learned guitar at the Old Town School, discovered by Roger Ebert. Wrote some of the best songs ever. One of Chicago's best.

[@jeremytandrews9577]

Yup, just like a lucky few couples my wife and I made this our song. We had been married for years before I ever heard it...., immediately , I played it for her and.. well , she got it. It turned me on to MR. PRINE and his music...., HE WILL BE MISSED. ( nothing but hearts) 🤙✌️

[@kaseygroome4536]

Not married yet... But this is a VERY lucky song.. as the same, when me and boyfriend heard it, it clicked instantly..... Can't wait to see the look on my families faces when we play this as our "first dance" because while it won't be the first, it certainly won't be the last either

[@jeremytandrews9577]

@@kaseygroome4536 AWESOME!.... and the best of wishes for y’all.
