She don't like her eggs all run-ny

Caught him once and he was sniff ing my un dies

4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 3 3 -3 -4 4
There won't be noth -in but big ole hearts danc -in in our eyes
She thinks all my jokes are corny
Convict movies maker her horny
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
She 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 bug junky
Sly as a fox, crazy as a loon
Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon
He's my baby I don't mean maybe
I'm never gonna let him go
