Cinderella

[Verse 1]
When I was just a little girl
My momma used to tuck me into bed and she 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

[Pre-Chorus]
I'd lie in bed and think about the person that I wanted to be
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life wasn't for me

[Chorus]
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 wanna depend on no one else, I'd rather rescue myself

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me
When I give myself then it has got to be an equal thing

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
I can slay my own dragon
I can dream my own dreams
My knight in shining armour is me
So I'm gonna set me free

[Interlude]
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
Save me, save me, save me, save me
Save me, save me, save me, save me

[Chorus]
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
