In Spite Of Myself Lyrics - The Early Year - Joe Nichols

I know that there's nights I stay out too late 

And time I forget to call 

It's true I might argue at the drop of a hat 

Or make a big deal out of nothing at all 

I'm not much for rules but I'm faithful and true 

She knows on the inside I'm good 

What she sees in me ain't half as important 

As what she overlooks 

And I wouldn't blame her if she said goodbye 

'Cause she ain't like nobody else 

And I must be the luckiest man alive 

'Cause she loves me in spite of myself 

I know she must wonder if she made the right choice 

And sometimes I wonder too 

It must be hard watchin' a man like me 

Trying to make all of her dreams come true
