Cinderella

When i was just a little girl

My momma used to tuck me into bed

And she d read me a story

It always was about a princess in distress

And how a guy would save her and end up with the glory

I d lie in bed and think about the person that i want to be

Then one day i realized the fairy tale life wasn t for me

I don t wanna be like cinderella

Sittin in a dark old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don t wanna be like snow white waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

On a horse of white unless we re riding side by side

Don t want to depend on no one else

I d rather rescue myself

Someday i m gonna find someone who wants my soul heart and mind

Who s not afraid to show that he loves me

Somebody who will understand i m happy just the way i am

Don t need nobody taking care of me

I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me

When i give myself then it has to got to be an equal thing

I don t wanna be like cinderella

Sittin in a dark old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don t wanna be like snow white waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

On a horse of white unless we re riding side by side

Don t want to depend on no one else

I d rather rescue myself

I can slay my own dragons

I can dream my own dreams

My knight in shining armour is me

So i m gonna set me free

Like cinderella

Old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don t wanna be like snow white waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

I don t wanna be like cinderella

Sittin in a dark old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don t wanna be like snow white waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

On a horse of white unless we re riding side by side

Don t want to depend on no one else

I d rather rescue myself

I don t wanna be like cinderella

Sittin in a dark old dusty cellar

Waiting for somebody to come and set me free

I don t wanna be like snow white waiting

For a handsome prince to come and save me

On a horse of white unless we re riding side by side

Don t want to depend on no one else

I d rather rescue myself
