So you found your Prince Charming was just a dream
There wasn't any Palace and you weren't a Queen
In your faded cotton dresses anyone could see
But you're still Cinderella to me
Cinderella, Cinderella
This is not the way love should be
Cinderella, Cinderella
Won't you let me take you home with me?
Our honeymoon may not be a fancy ball
You may not have a maid and butler at your call
But I'll be more than any prince could ever be
And you'll be Cinderella to me
Cinderella, Cinderella
This is not the way love should be
Cinderella, Cinderella
I used to be your girlfriend and I know I did it well
Oh yes you know its true
You'd call me Cinderella
All you had to do was yell
And I'd be there for you
Here I am
So try to forgive me
I don't believe in fairy tales
Here we are with nothing but honesty
I've had enough
I'm not gonna stay
I'm sorry for running away like this
And I'm sorry I've already made my wish
Oh, But Cinderellas got to go
From time to time I'd try to tell just what was on my mind.
You'd tell me not today.
Come back, do that.
Wheres, Cinderella at...
Was all you had to say
Here I am, so try to forgive me
I don't believe in fairy tales
here we are with nothing but honesty
i've had..enough...i'm not gonna stay
I'm sorry for running away like this 'n i'm sorry
i've already made my wish. Ah, but cinderella's
got to go
i'm sorry just tryin' to live my life
don't worry, you're gonna be alright
but cinderellas got to go.
I used to say I want you, you cast me in your spell.
I did everything you wanted me to, but now i shall..
break free from all your lies. I won't be blind you see,
my love it can't be sacrificed, i won't return to thee.
I'm so sorry, i've already made up my mind
I won't return to thee
I'm sorry to say, i'm runnin' away now...
don't worry, you will be alright
i'm runnin' away, i've made up my mind now..
your gonna have to let me go
I'm sorry for runnin' away like this, and I'm
sorry I've already made my wish
Oh, but cinderella's got to go
I'm sorry, just tryin' to live my life, don't worry,
your going to be alright!
As I was walking down a
path in the woods one day I
came across a vision that caught my eye
There was a lady standing
right there beside a well, and I heard her whisper
what you wish for you can have
Then the vision went away
I thought that I had lost her
The girl I had been waiting for
I can't believe I just saw her
She is the finest thing, I ever could imagine
Now I want her next to me, cause I want, cause I want more
Whoahhhh
Chorus
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya
She is a gentle flower, she is the sun and rain and
She could be the reason for my joy and my pain
The first thing I see each morning, the last thing I see at night
You know if I could have all that
That's all I wish for in my life
Why did she have to go
What do I say to find her
This girl is the only one
I cannot deny her
She's making love to my mind
And I can't forget this feeling
It's her voice that's calling
It's her voice I need
Whoahhh
Chorus
Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
Come back to me now
Cinderella
I was out last night having a ball
And comin' home, I wasn't thinkin' nothin' at all
And there on the sidewalk what did I see
A little glass slipper starin' back at me
Cinderella (Cinderella)
Well I'm not superstitious but I'm smarter than I seem
And I knew it was love, if you know what I mean
When I saw that slipper it occurred to me
The shoe fit her and she fit me
Cinderella (Cinderella)
Cinderella (Cinderella)
When I find her it will be
A fairy tale for her and me
I will never let her go
Cinderella
Now the other girls hold no fascination for me
I just think of her wherever she may be
I will search my whole life through
'Cause no one else will ever do
Cinderella (Cinderella)
Cinderella (Cinderella)
When I find her it will be
A fairy tale for her and me
I will never let her go
She will give my heart a home
Until that day I'll be alone
With just a slipper and a dream
Cinderella (Cinderella)
Cinderella (Cinderella)
Oo (Cinderella)
Say you're sorry
You still care
She came by my place again
Cryin' about you man
You should love her
Twice as much
I try to remember you're a friend
But it's gettin' a little rough
She's just tired of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection, a little understanding
You better be careful 'cause the next time
She comes to my door she won't be a Cinderella no more
A teardrop trembled
On her face
Where that smile always was
It seemed out of place
When I held her
Like a friend
I could feel a sweet beginning
But taste a bitter end
She's just tired of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection, a little understanding
You better be careful 'cause the next time
She comes to my door you'll be sorry
'Cause it seems like
It's always something with you
And everybody's always wrong
One of these nights
You'll reach for the pillow she sleeps on
And she's gonna be gone
She's just tired of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection, a little understanding
And you better be careful 'cause the next time
She comes to my door you'll be sorry
She's just tired of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection, a little understanding
And you better be careful 'cause the next time
She comes to my door you'll be sorry
She spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world
And I'm sitting here wearing
The weight of the world on my shoulders
It's been a long day
And there's still work to do
She's pulling at me
Saying "Dad, I need you
There's a ball at the castle
And I've been invited
And I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone...
She says he's a nice guy and I'd be impressed
She wants to know if I approve of the dress
She says, "Dad, the prom is just one week away
And I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone
She will be gone
Well, she came home today with a ring on her hand
Just glowing and telling us all they had planned
She says, "Dad, the wedding's still six months away
But I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
As I was walking down a

It's midnight Cinderella but don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter Peter the Pumpkin Eater
And the party's just begun
I guess your prince charming
Wasn't after all
'Cause he sure seemed different
Right after the ball
I guess more than horses
Are turnin' into rats
And by the way he's walkin'
I can guess where your slipper's at
It's midnight Cinderella time that you should know
There's gonna be some changes in the way this story goes
It's midnight Cinderella but don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter Peter the Pumpkin Eater
And the party's just begun
I'm gonna help you get over
Bein' under that spell
You're gonna learn to love midnight
Inside this pumpkin shell
I gotta few new magic tricks
Your godmother can't do
I'll show you what it means to
Bip, bip, bip, bip, boppity boo
It's midnight Cinderella time that you should know
There's gonna be some changes in the way this story goes
It's midnight Cinderella but don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter Peter the Pumpkin Eater

May I do the un-troduction, Cinderella
Shoe, shoe was Cinderella
In this little cellar
We grow like weeds
Cause it’s damp and dark
And we chose to park right here
Oh dear oh dear oh dea-ea-ea-ear
Someone is bound
To notice that we don’t
Blend in no matter how hard
The bartender tries
With our parking skills
And our lullabies
So he lays and lies and lies
Awake
Sayin’ oh man
I’ve got me a cunt back home
And she’s got herself a
Bun in the oven
If you know what I mean
I mean I tried
I tried to keep the whole thing clean
And it never happened on a screen
And it was seen
Never happening by
Millions of people
Oh sometimes you just gotta
Sell your sou-ou-oul
Sometimes you just gotta
Sell your soul
Cinderella
Shoe, shoe
Cinderella, Cinderella
Shoe, shoe

Everything I touch turns to shh..
It's taking it's toll
Can anybody get me off it?
Stuck on a roll
And it's wearing thin
I remember the night
No wet eyes, no crossroads
No mention of fate
Just a poor decision
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head would bust
I shoudn't have gone
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
For poor Cinderella
I'm on a roll
Everything I touch turns to gold
It's taking its toll
Can anybody get me off it?
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head was busting
I shouldn't have gone
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
The clock strikes
It's midnight

Ah yea
Old man looks much younger now
He lost his strength respect somehow
Look in the mirror at what I found
It's just the past and it's over now
ooo it's over now
ooo it's over now
My heart's like a wheel
and my head's just a stone
I got my memories
Ain't got no home
I'm Fallin'
ooo Fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
ooo yea Fallin' apart at the seams
Old friends seem much closer now
They stand the test of time somehow
Look at the winner who hit the ground
It comes around and then it goes back down
ooo it's over now
ooo it's over now
My heart's like a wheel
And my head's just a stone
I got my memories
Ain't got no home
I'm Fallin'
ooo Fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
ooo yea Fallin' apart at the seams
My heart's like a wheel
And my head's just a stone
I got my memories
Ain't got no home
I'm Fallin'
ooo Fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
ooo yea Fallin' apart at the seams
I can't tell ya baby what went wrong
I can't make you feel what you felt
So long ago, I'll let it show
I can't give you back what's been hurt
Heartaches come and go and all that's
left are the words I can't let go
If we take some time think it over baby
Take some time let me know
If you really wanna go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
I can't feel the things that cause you pain
I can't clear my heart of you love
It falls like rain, ain't the same
I hear you calling far away
Tearing through my soul I just can't
Take another day, who's to blame
If we take some time think it over baby
Take some time let me know
If you really wanna go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
Do you wanna see me beggin' baby
Can't you give me just one more day
Can't you see my heart's been draggin' lately
I've been lookin' for the words to say
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
Alright
Lookin' on back when I was young
I tried to sing it but my song had been sung
And now I ain't got no worries
Ain't got no one to call my own
I said but when I got just a little bit older
All got had come undone
Let's go boys
Everybody needs a little place they can hide
Somewhere to call their own
Don't let nobody inside
Every now and then we all need to let go
For some it's the doctor
For me it's rock and roll
For some it's a bottle
For some it's a pill
Some people wave the bible, cause it's giving them a thrill
Others point their finger if they don't like what they see
If you live in a glass house, don't be throwing rocks at me
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper to get us by
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
Check out Mr. Politician in his suit and tie
But when the doors are closed there ain't nothin' he won't try
Meanwhile Mr. Medicine's treating his best friend's wife
Tipper led the war against the record industry
She said she saw the devil on her MTV
To look into the cabinet, it takes more than a key
Just like Jimmy's skeletons and his ministry
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper to get us by
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
Hit it now
For some it's the needle
For some it's the kill
Some people wave the bible, cause it's giving them a thrill
You can spend your money before you get your pay
With a toss of the dice, you can piss it all away
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper to get us by
We all need a little shelter
Just a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
Alright
We all need
A little shelter
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Oh Lord, it's gonna be alright
Come on now
Come on now and shelter me now
Just a little helper
Shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter
We all need
We need a little shelter
Just a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
I count the fallen tears
They fall before my eyes
Seems like a thousand years
Since we broke the ties
I call you on the phone
But never get a rise
So sit there all alone
It's time you realized
I'm not your fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Never again, no no
You take your road, I'll take mine
The paths have both been beat
Searching for a change of pace
Life needs to be sweetened
I scream my heart out
Just to make a dime
With that dime I bought your love
But now I've changed my mind
I'm not your fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Never again, no no
I'm not your fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I count the fallen tears
They fall before my eyes
Seems like a thousand years
Since we broke the ties
I'm not your fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool, nobody's fool
I'm no fool
You got me jumpin' right out of my skin
You keep it up and I'll be comin' on in
You start a feelin' you're the cream of the crop
You gonna break my heart or just make it stop
You told me that you'd always love me true
But then I heard you told another guy too
Take a cold shower but the water boils hot
The way you twist and shake it girl
You tie me in a knot
And get me hot
Ooo hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
Come on now
Now listen
I pick you up at eight by ten we do the town
Empty my pockets just a tryin' to get you down
Throw in the towel I think your games are such a bore
Just when I think I've lost you pull me to the floor
And get me hot
Ooo hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
Ooo you get me hot
Hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
Baby baby baby get me hot
Ooo hot and bothered
So hot and bothered You get me
Hot and bothered
Hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
Hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
Hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
Ooo hot and bothered
Hot and bothered
Bad Seamstress Blues
Alright
Lookin' on back when I was young
I tried to sing it, but my song had been sung
And now I ain't got no worries
Ain't got no one to call my own
I said but when I got just a little bit older
All I got had come undone
Let's go boys
Fallin' Apart At The Seams
Ah yea
Old man looks much younger now
He lost his strength respect somehow
Look in the mirror at what I found
It's just the past and it's over now
Ooo it's over now
Ooo it's over now
My heart's like a wheel
And my head's just a stone
I got my memories
Ain't got no home
I'm fallin'
Ooo fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
Ooo yea fallin' apart at the seams
Old friends seem much closer now
They stand the test of time somehow
Look at the winner who hit the ground
It comes around and then it goes back down
Ooo it's over now
Ooo it's over now
My heart's like a wheel
And my head's just a stone
I got no memories
Ain't got no home
I'm fallin'
Ooo fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
Ooo yea fallin' apart at the seams
My heart's like a wheel
And my head's just a stone
I got my memories
Ain't got no home
I'm fallin'
Ooo fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
Ooo yea fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
I'm fallin' fallin'
Fallin' apart at the seams
Fallin'
Ooo yea ooo yea
Whoa yea
Woke up this morning on the wrong side of bed
I got this feeling like a train's running through my head
Turned on my radio to the same old song
Some big mouth talking trying to tell us where the world went wrong
But all this talk of peace and love
It's only for the news
Cause everytime you trust someone
You end up getting screwed
The more things change
The more they stay the same
Everyone's your brother till you turn the other way
The more things change
The more they stay the same
All we need's a miracle to take us all away from the pain
Came to this morning I was feeling mighty used
Picked up the telephone but all I got's a major attitude
Turned on the TV to the same old news
Everybody thinks they got the answer to the same old blues
Like a hot smokin' pistol on a saturday night
You gotta go for the throat
You gotta fight for your life
The more things change
The more they stay the same
Everyone's your brother till you turn the other way
The more things change
The more they stay the same
All we need's a miracle to take us all away from the pain
Take me away
Like a hot smokin' pistol on a saturday night
You gotta go for the throat
You gotta fight for your life
The more things change
The more they stay the same
Everyone's your brother till you turn the other way
The more things change
The more they stay the same
All we need's a miracle to take us all away
The more things change
The more they stay the same
Everyone's your brother till you turn the other way
The more things change
The more they stay the same
All we need's a miracle
The more things change
The more things change
The more things change
The more things change
The more things change
The more things change
The more things change
Born and raised in a one dog town
That never took a chance or a dare
The times kept a changin' but it all passed 'em by
The prejudices in the air
Drove me to cocaine eyes by the age of one five
Kept my momma walking the floor
But I had to draw the line for the very last time
She kicked my ass out the door
It ain't always easy when you're living hand to mouth
The more you put in, the less you get out
It ain't always easy when you're living day to day
It ain't always easy when you're tryin' to make your own way
Make your own way
When life's a little hard on you
Make yor own way
Nobody's gonna die for you
I remember rollin' dice on the run
Looking for a winning hand
We never stop to wonder at the wonders passing by
Just searchin' for the promised land
We met a mean old man
Who dealt a dirty hand
Promised we could touch the sky
But the devil's his friend
He put the pen in my hand
Said you can pay me back after you die
It ain't always easy when you're living hand to mouth
The more you put in, the less you get out
It ain't always easy when you're living day to day
It ain't always easy when you're tryin' to make your own way
Make your own way
When life's a little hard on you
Make yor own way
Nobody's gonna die for you
Ah, ah, ah sometimes you gotta walk the straight line
Ah, ah, ah feel like I'm just doing time
Ooo, when life gets a little hard
You gotta gotta ooo make your own way
Sometimes you gotta make your own way
Here we go
Ooo, sing it for 'em now, yeah
Make your own way
When life's a little hard on you
Make your own way
Ain't nobody gonna die for you
Make your own way
When life's a little hard on you
Make your own way
Ain't nobody gonna die for you
Make your own way
You gotta gotta make your own way
Make your own way
Make your own way
You gotta make your own way
Make your own way
Gotta make your own way
Make your own way
If I hear you stalkin'
Looking for sympathy
You just keep on walkin'
Actin' like you don't know me
Ain't nothin' new for you
Honey what you put me through
Seven years ago today
There ain't no other way
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea
Your love
Your love's gone bad
If I hear you talkin'
Gettin' in my ear
Listen to the words I say
Let me make this very clear
Don't ask for money
Don't you think my name
Everything was sunny
Dream about it ain't the same
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea
Your love
Your love's gone bad
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea
Your love
Your love's gone bad Your love
Your love's gone bad
yea, yea, yea
Your love's gone bad
Your love's gone bad
Your love's gone bad
So bad
When I was young
Old man sat me on his knee
He told me if I had a dream
I could be what I wanna be
Now life goes on
A voice echoes in the wind
It's telling me to carry on
Now I know that it's him
He said
Whoa, watch out boy
Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy
Lord help ya to carry life's load
It could all pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Now I got a good woman
You know she's lookin' out for me
And if I get a little blind
You know she helps me to see
But I gotta keep a runnin'
Cause they're catchin' up to me
I think I hear that voice again
This time it says to me
He said
Whoa, watch out boy
Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy
Lord help ya to carry life's load
Don't you let it pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Look out
When I was young
Old man sat me on his knee
He told me if I had a dream
I could be what I wanna be
Now life goes on
A voice echoes in the wind
It's telling me to carry on
Now I know that it's him
He said
Whoa, watch out boy
Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy
Lord help ya to carry life's load
Don't you let it pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Whoa, watch out boy
Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy
Lord help ya to carry life's load
Don't you let it pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Whoa, watch out boy
Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy
Lord help ya to carry life's load
Don't you let it pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Pull on up into the soap box stool
Let me tell you some stories about how life can be cruel
I had big dreams, but they turned to dust
I need another shot of oil, 'cause it's startin' to rust
And I'm tryin' to make a livin', tryin' to find my way
I've been bustin' my ass to be somebody, someday
Tryin' to make a livin', tryin' to get ahead
Shootin' at the moon, but it shot me down instead
War stories, I'm kickin' and fightin' for my life
Through those war stories
I made it through the battle of life
And it's on and on until you're long gone
But the strong keep stickin' it out
Through those war stories
Everybody's got 'em when you hit the bottom and you survive
I said have another drink this one's on me
Let me tell you 'bout pain from A to Z
I got scars from my head to my feet
Some like a junkyard car, still rollin' down the streets
And I'm tryin' to make a dollar, tryin' to pay my way
I've been bustin' my balls, and then they take it all away
I'm tryin' to climb the ladder, reachin' for the sky
I ain't goin' down until they hang me out to dry, yeah
War stories, I'm kickin' and fightin' for my life
Through those war stories
I made it through the battle of life
And it's on and on until you're long gone
But the strong keep stickin' it out
Through those war stories
Everybody's got 'em when you hit the bottom and you survive
And it's on and on until you're long gone
But the strong keep stickin' it out
They got towin' the line till the sun don't shine
But all I got left to talk about
Are those war stories
I'm kickin' and fightin' for my life
Through those war stories
I made it through the battle of life
War stories
Through those war stories
I'm gettin' hot
I've got to give a shot
She wants it all
And that's a lot
I'm gettin' ready
Love's lookin' steady
It's gettin' sticky
I thought she might miss me
She looked at me and said
I need a little, push push
Come and give a little, push push
If ya take a little, push push
Then you'll get a little, push push
She's lookin' fine
Flashin' like a neon sign
She thinks it's love
I said that comes with time
I'm gettin' ready
Love's lookin' steady
It's gettin' sticky
I thought she might miss me
She looked at me and said
I need a little, push push
Come and give a little, push push
If ya take a little, push push
Then you'll get a little, push push
Whoa yeah, push on
I'm gettin' ready
The love's lookin' steady
It's gettin' sticky
I thought she might miss me
She looked at me and said
I need a little, push push
Come and give a little, push push
If ya take a little, push push
Then you'll get a little, push push
Woo, push push
Mmm, keep pushin' me, push push
Push on, push push
Waiting at the station
Tears filling up my eyes
Sometimes the pain you hide
Burns like a fire inside
Look out my window
Sometimes it's hard to see
The things you want in life
Come and go so easily
She took the last train out of my heart
She took the last train
And now I think I'll make a brand new start
She took the last train out of my heart
Watching the days go by
Thinking 'bout the plans we made
The days turn into years
Funny how they fade away
Sometimes I think of those days
Sometimes I just hide away
Waiting on that 9:20 train
Waiting on a memory
She took the last train out of my heart
She took the last train
And now I think I'll make a brand new start
She took the last train out of my heart
My lady's on the fly
And she's never coming back
My love is like a steam train
Rolling down the tracks yeah, yeah
She took the last train out of my heart
She took the last train
And now I think I'll make a brand new start
She took the last train out of my heart
She took the last train, out of my heart
She took the last train
And now I think I'll make a new start
I used to be, now I'm not what you see, Lord I try
And now it seems all those dreams have come true
But they're passing me by
Some fast talkin' mama for a dollar put a smile on my face
I'm drivin' all night, I end up in the same old place
My gypsy road can't take me home
I drive all night just to see the light
My gypsy road can't take me home
I keep on pushin' 'cause it feels alright
And who's to care if I grow my hair to the sky
I'll take a wish and a prayer
Cross my fingers 'cause I always get by
Some fast talkin' jerk for a dollar wiped the smile off my face
I'm drivin' all night just to keep the rat in the race
My gypsy road can't take me home
I drive all night just to see the light
My gypsy road can't take me home
I keep on pushin' 'cause it feels alright
Sometimes I feel so old
Got my lights burnin' bright
But I'm lookin' pretty sold
Sometimes I feel so cold
So cold, let's go
Hang that
Got to get on home, what time?
My gypsy road can't take me home
My gypsy road can't take me home
Take me
My gypsy road can't take me home
I drive all night just to see the light
My gypsy road can't take me home
I keep on pushin' 'cause it feels alright
My gypsy road can't take me home
I drive all night just to see the light
My gypsy road can't take me home
I keep on pushin'
My gypsy road
My gypsy road
My gypsy road
When I was down
An angel came to me
And she touched me inside
That woman set me free
Turned on the light
So I could see
That there was fire inside
And I could feel the heat
She's got the power, she gets me high
She can take a storm and make it shine
She keeps the sparks burning over time
That woman's got electric love, ooh, electric love
There ain't no medicine
That makes me fly
Like when I'm with my sweet woman
She keeps me so satisfied
If we had no money, oh no
We'd still get by
And if the world should stop turnin'
Our love would be alive
She's got the power, she gets me high
She can take a storm and make it shine
She keeps the sparks burning over time
That woman's got electric love, look out
She's got the power, she gets me high
She can take a storm and make it shine
She keeps the sparks burning over time
That woman's got electric love
Whoa yeah, she gets me high, so high
Ooh yeah, she makes the stars shine
Burning all the time
That woman's got electric love
Electric love, electric love
She's got the fire, she's got the fire
Electric love, electric love

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep
Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling thru
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
Everybody thinks it¹s so easy
Everybody thinks it¹s so fine
But everytime I get a little closer to the top
I find myself at the end of the line
You take a slow ride up
And fast one down
Nothin¹ gonna stop you spinnin round and round
Everybody¹s talkin at me
But nothin¹s soundin right
They say my future¹s lookin brighter
But I don¹t see no light
I got a bottle of hurricane
It gets me high as a kite
Now the rain¹s pissin down
And the storm is in sight
When the shit hits the fan
You gotta stick to the fight
Everybody says the world owes me
Everybody wants a free ride
Well let me tell ya mister
If you never raise a blister
Then you might as well have laid down and died
Cause you ain¹t gettin out
What you don¹t put in
You¹re never gonna make it if
Your head is in a spin
Everybody¹s talkin at me
But nothin¹s soundin right
They say my future¹s lookin brighter
But I don¹t see no light
I got a bottle of hurricane
It gets me high as a kite
Now the rain¹s pissin down
and the storm in is sight
When the shit hits the fan
You gotta stick to the fight
Can you feel the heat, yea
Comin down on you
When it all comes down
When it all comes down watcha gonna do
Feel it comin down on you now, yea
When it all comes down
When it all comes down
When it all comes down
When it all comes down
When it all comes down
Can ya feel it, feel it, feel it comin down on you
Can ya tick to the fight when the heat¹s comin down on you
When it all comes down
Ah, take me
Growing up as a young boy
Sometimes can be rough
At six years old I was thinkin'
Seven would be just enough
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong yea
Ten years old and I'm growin'
Thinkin' I got it sussed
Mama said you'll be a fine young man
I thought I already was
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong
Cause when you get where you're going
The road's still long
Eighteen years I'm a rebel
Thinkin' I'm pretty tough
Daddy said you got a lot to learn
I thought that I'd learned enough
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong yea
Twenty-five was a good time
Comin' into my own
Climbed the mountain
And I reached for the sky
I thought that I had it all
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong
Cause when you get where you're going
The road's still long When you get where you're going
The road's still long
They all try to tell you
But who are they to say
Cause the best things that you learn
You find out on your way
No time for feelin' sorry
Just time for being strong
When you get where your going
The road's still long
Now I see where I come from
Now I see where I am
Now I see that you never really know
So you just gotta do the best you can
And that ain't wrong
Ooo that ain't wrong no
Cause when you get where you're going
The road's still long
When you get where you're going
The road's still long
When you get where you're going yea
I see people walking down the street
Got their heads so high
They can¹t see their feet
With their blinders on
They walk the endless smile
Working for that perfect life of style
But I¹m lookin for a better way
Something in my life
Nothing ever seems to satisfy
I reach my hands out to the sky
And I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
I¹m still climbing ooo yea
I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
I hear people talkin all day long
Got their minds make up
They can¹t do no wrong
With their hearts so cold
They never ever feel
Losing touch with everything that¹s real
But I¹m lookin for a better way
Something in my life
Nothing ever seems to satisfy
I reach my hands out to the sky
And I¹ll be climbing for rest of my life
I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
I¹m still climbing ooo yea
I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
Ooo in the darkest hour
Feel I¹m sinkin low
But I¹ll reach higher
Now I¹m lookin for a better way
Something in my life
Nothing ever seems to satisfy
I reach my hands out to the sky
And I¹ll be climbing
Ooo I¹m still climbing
I¹ll be climbing for the rest of my life
I¹m still climbing ooo yea
Mama sometimes I feel inside
There¹s nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
Could ever match the love you gave
You taught me how to live
Told me walk before you run
And you were always there
To pick me up
Everytime I¹d have a fall
And mama I know there¹s been times
When I didn¹t always understand
By and by we do some growing up
And it makes just a little more sense
But sometimes it¹s hard to find the words
But I¹ll do the best that I can
Thank you for the love mama
It¹s what made this boy a man
I know the roads been long
And I know you¹ve seen some rain
Makin the best of what we had
I never heard you complain
When I look in the mirror today
Wondering could I be as strong
Could I give as much to someone else
As you gave to your son
And mama I know there¹s been times
When we didn¹t see eye to eye
By and by we do some growing up
And we understand the reasons why
But sometimes it¹s hard to find the words
But I¹ll do the best that I can
Thank you for the love mama
It¹s what made this boy a man yea
Many years have gone by
And I¹ve been living them
The best I can
Mama I know there¹s been times
When I didn¹t always understand
By and by we do some growing up
And it makes just a little more sense
But sometimes it¹s hard to find the words
But I¹ll do the best that I can
Thank you for the love mama
You say I get around but
I¹m gonna hit the ground
I don¹t hear a word you¹re sayin
Going out of my head and
the world¹s turnin red
Don¹t think I¹ll be stayin
You got your fancy pants now
wear em to the dance
All I got is what I¹m playin
But the trouble with you is there ain¹t just a few
Don¹t take the ride unless you¹re payin
Like a hot burnin fire
Blazin out of control
I couldn¹t get much higher I¹m
Freewheelin
Nothing gets in my way
When I¹m freewheelin
I¹m free yea
Take a look around cause it¹s all fallin down
Fallin from the dream that we created
I¹m lookin up at the sky and I¹m wondering why
Why it¹s all deflated
You got a million and one ways to have fun
Everything I¹ve done is over-rated
So take a step back cause I don¹t need the flack
I can see your promises a fadin
Like a hot burnin fire
Blazin out of control
I couldn¹t get much higher I¹m
Freewheelin
Nothing gets in my way
When I¹m freewheelin
I¹m free yea
Like a hot burnin fire
Blazin out of control
I couldn¹t get much higher I¹m
Freewheelin
Nothin gets in my way
When I¹m freewheelin
I¹m free yea
Freewheelin
Nothing gets in my way
When I¹m freewheelin
I¹m free yea
Freewheelin
When I¹m freewheelin
I¹m running free
But I ain¹t got no time to fly
And I can see
But tomorrow maybe I¹ll be blind
I met a man with a cup
Looking pretty beat up
He stared straight into my eyes
He said today you may be rich
But tomorrow you¹ll be poor
And the next day you could die
I said it¹s easy come
And it¹s easy go
Don¹t go cryin on my shoulder
Cause I won and I lost
More than you could know
I always find a way
To make it through another day
Cause when all you got¹s
Your pride
Ain¹t nobody gonna take it away
I¹m moving fast always feeling two steps behind
Forget the past
Cause it¹s the only way to ease my mind
Some fortune telling lady
With her face a little crazy
Stared straight into my eyes
She said I¹d love to help you son
But this one you can¹t out run
I sure as hell
Can give it a try
Cause it¹s easy come
And it¹s easy go
Don¹t go crying on my shoulder
Cause I won and Lost
More than you could know
I always find a way
To make it through another day
Cause when all you got¹s
Your pride
Ain¹t nobody gonna take it away
Take it one breath at a time
Cause we¹re all just walkin the line
I¹ll be doin just fine
When tomorrow¹s out of sight and out of mind
Cause it¹s easy come
And easy go
Don¹t go cryin on my shoulder
Cause I won and lost
More than you could know
I always find a way
To make it through another day
Cause when all you got¹s
Your pride
Ain¹t nobody gonna take it away, yea
Cause it¹s easy come
I know it¹s hard
In a world gone mad
To find the truth
To Understand
And I know it¹s hard
To turn the page
To walk the line
To have the faith
But sometimes when it¹s light
And you can¹t see
Sometimes when this world
Just seems to be so cold
Sometimes when you¹re lost at sea
Drowning in your pain
Sometimes the sun shines through the rain
I know it¹s hard
In a world so cold
To feel the love
I know it¹s hard
And I know it¹s true
That in the end
We all find our way
And that¹s life my friend
But sometimes when it¹s light
And you can¹t see
Sometimes when this world
Just seems to be so cold
Sometimes when you¹re lost at sea
Drowning in your pain
Sometimes the sun shines
Through the pain
World keeps turning
Nothing changes
Hope this time
We can rearrange the stars
I can¹t be that hard no
Sometimes when it¹s light
And you can¹t see
Sometimes when this world
Just seems to be so cold
Sometimes when you¹re lost at sea
Drowning in your pain
Sometimes the sun shines
Through the pain
Sometimes when it¹s light
And you can¹t see
Sometimes when this world
Just seems to be so cold
Sometimes when you¹re lost at sea
Drowning in your pain
Sometimes the sun shines
Through the rain
Ooh let it shine
Shine through the rain
Ooo let it shine
Shine through the rain
Sometimes the sun shines through the rain
Don¹t you know it¹s gonna shine yea
Shining down on you
When I was a young boy
They said you're only gettin' older
But how was I to know then
That they'd be cryin' on my shoulder
Put your money in a big house
Get yourself a pretty wife
She'll collect your life insurance
When she connects you with a knife
Somebody get the doctor
I'm feelin' pretty poor
Somebody get the stretcher
Before I hit the floor
Somebody save me
I lost my job, they kicked me out of my tree
Somebody save me
Save me
Everybody's got opinions
But nobody's got the answers
And that shit you ate for breakfast
Well it'll only give you cancer
We're runnin' in a circle
Runnin' to the morning light
And if ya ain't quite workable
It's been one hell of a night
Somebody get the doctor
I think I'm gonna crash
Never paid the bill
Because I ain't got the cash
Somebody save me
I lost my job, they kicked me out of my tree
Somebody save me
Save me
Look out
Save me
I lost my job, they kicked me out of my tree
Somebody save me, oh
Save me
Somebody save me
I'm goin' down for the last time, look out
Save me
Sa-a-a-a-a-a-ave me
Save me
You say that it's over baby
You say that it's over now
And still you hang around

You know that I need a woman
You know that I need a woman
But when I ask you to
You just tell me
That maybe you can
Please don't ya do it to me babe
No

Either take the love I offer
Honey let me be
I ain't quite ready for walking
No, no, no
Ain't quite ready for walking
And what will you do with your love
Love just dangle a little more
Oh
Make up your mind
You're playin' the fool
Make up your mind
You're playin' the fool
Now either be my lovin' heart
Or honey let me be
Let me be, let me be
Oww

Honey, you're teasin' me
Ya think you're playin' with my heart, dear
I believe you're toyin' with my affections, honey
I can't take no more
And furthermore, I don't intend to
You got my heart dangling from a string, babe
You expect me to fight like I'm a goddamn mule
Have mercy on a poor boy's heart
Cause I got the key that can make your motor start
Can't you love me
Without messin' me around
You took everything I got then kick me when I'm down
Ooo, got this funny feeling that you ain't on the level
I look into those eyes but all I see's the devil
I heard through the vine that you may not be mine
Don't lock me up
I can't pay the fine
Make up your mind before you make me lose mine
Your love's got me doin' time
Have mercy on a poor boy's soul
I've been down so long never thought I could feel so low
First you love me
Then you stab my back
Close the door, turn the key, all I can see is black
Ooo, got this funny feeling that you ain't on the level
I look into those eyes but all I see's the devil
I heard through the vine that you may not be mine
Don't lock me up
I can't pay the fine
Make up your mind before you make me lose mine
Your love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
So what's a poor boy supposed to do
I've done everything I can, I've been so true
You got a mean streak
Like an alley cat
You sucked all the love from me like a vampire bat
Ooo, got this funny feeling that you ain't on the level
I look into those eyes but all I see's the devil
I heard through the vine that you may not be mine
Don't lock me up
I can't pay the fine
Make up your mind before you make me lose mine
Your love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
Love's got me doin'
Love's got me doin' time
See me, feel me, come and touch me
The way I touch you
In the crossfire, live wire, who said maybe
I said maybe won't do
The sands of time are slipping by
Dust to dust, no second try
You're only goin'
Once around the ride, yeah
You're only goin'
Once around the ride
Rock hard, got an ace card
I ain't crazy
Just got nothin' to do
Day breaks, I'll take
Can't wait forever
'Cause my life will be through
The sands of time are slipping by
Dust to dust, no second try
You're only goin'
Once around the ride, yeah
You're only goin'
Once around the ride
Dust to dust, no second try
You're only goin'
Once around the ride
Once around the ride
Once around the ride
When you see your face in the mirror
Does it seem the end is gettin' nearer
All your life you spent as a wheeler
Now the hole you dug, it gettin' deeper
You're talkin' words
But they don't make the rhyme
You'll lose it all
Cause you can't draw the line
You got nothin'
Nothin' for nothin'
You're hurtin' overtime
Nothin' for nothin'
And we don't need your kind
Nothin' for nothin'
Pushin', shovin', got no time
Nothin' for nothin'
When you see the day gettin' darker
You can run to yuor lies, run to your cover
When you feel the heat from a lover
You hit the highway lookin' for another
You made the grade
You left the hills behind
You take the the cake and eat it
You're so blind
You got nothin'
Nothin' for nothin'
You're hurtin' overtime
Nothin' for nothin'
And we don't need your kind
Nothin' for nothin'
Pushin', shovin', got no time
Nothin' for nothin', hey
Nothin' for nothin'
You're hurtin' overtime
Nothin' for nothin'
And we don't need your kind
Nothin' for nothin'
Pushin', shovin', got no time
Nothin' for nothin', hey
Nothin' for nothin'
You're hurtin' overtime
Nothin' for nothin'
And we don't need your kind
Nothin' for nothin'
Pushin', shovin', got no time
Nothin' for nothin', hey
Nothin' for nothin'
You're hurtin' overtime
Nothin' for nothin'
And we don't need your kind
Nothin' for nothin'
Pushin', shovin', got no time
Hey
You're hurtin' overtime
(# indicates line is sung by Jon Bon Jovi)
# I've been loved and I've been shoved
# Beaten every step of the way
# Lived by the glass
# And got a little ass
# Three or four times a day
Well, I've seen blood like Noah's flood
I think its gonna take us away
Tellin' you should listen real good
Hell's come back to stay
Well you can't take it with you
It's a one way ride
Baby's had enough of lookin'
In from the outside
In from the outside
Feelin' down low, time to let go
You're only as good as you please
Walk before you crawl, make the last call
You need it like a social disease
Well you can't take it with you
It's a one way ride
Baby's had enough of lookin'
In from the outside
In from the outside
In from the outside
I've been loved and I've been shoved
Beaten every step of the way
Lived by the glass
And got a little ass
Three or four times a day
Well you can't take it with you
It's a one way ride
Baby's had enough of lookin'
In from the outside
In from the outside
In from the outside
We hang tough
When the chips are low
Can't buy enough
So we steal the show
We get so hot
We can't cool down
So the hell with that
We're rippin' through your town
We've had enough of the raw deals
Hit the road and tell ya how it feels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
We live fast
But we love it so
Can't see the past
But it's gone we know
We get so hot
We can't cool down
So the hell with that
We're burnin' through your town
We've had enough of the raw deals
Hit the road and tell ya how it feels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Run like hell
Hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels
Like hell on wheels

I hit the road wide open at seventeen
Mama cried herself to sleep
Lost a dad I'd never seen
Took all my childhood friends
Guitar, and a dream
Some say I got it bad
I say I've got the cream
No, no, no
I roll into town and I'm spinnin' my wheels to black
Go, go, go
I hit the stage and you make me feel like I'm back
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home
I worked from nine to five at twenty-two
Felt good to stay alive
Good times were far and few
Trustin' my hopes and dreams
With someone who said they knew
Just how to make ends meet
They haven't got a clue
No, no, no
I rolled into town and I'm spinnin' my wheels to black
Go, go, go
I hit the stage and you make me feel like I'm back
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home
Take me back
I'm back
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home again
I'm back
Back home
I walked alone my heart a little colder
Trying to make it on my way
I took a ride wasn't getting any older
Seventeen was here to stay
They caught us living a dream
We tried to get out the steam
Take me Back
Cause I need to be reminded
What I left behind me
So far away
Take me back
Cause I need to feel the fire
Yesterday's desire
Ain't far away
I was raised by my Daddy's hand
My Mama taught me how to pray
Got no regrets `bout the things I've done
Now I'm lookin' back to yesterday
They caught us living a dream
We tried to get out the steam
Take me Back
Cause I need to be reminded
What I left behind me
So far away
Take me back
Cause I need to feel the fire
Yesterday's desire
Ain't far away
I've been down
I've been cryin' in the dead of night
I've been tryin', I've been tryin'
To find the time to make it right
It's gonna be a long cold winter
Long cold winter without your love
I've been walkin', I've been freezin'
Freezin' from a love, I left behind
I've been searchin', I've been searchin'
Can't find my peace of mind
It's gonna be a long cold winter
Long cold winter without your love
I've been down, oh, I've been down, yeah
Baby, baby, baby oh, I'm freezin'
I'm freezin', I'm freezin', I'm cold
So so so cold
It's gonna be a long cold winter
I don't need anyone
To tell me how to run my life

You got me jumpin right out of my skin
You keep it up and I¹ll be comin on in
You start a feelin you¹re the cream of the crop
You gonna break my heart or just make it stop
You told me that you¹d always love me true
But then I heard you told another guy too
Take a cold shower but he water boils hot
The way you twist and shake it girl
you tie me in a knot
and get me hot
Ooh hot & bothered
So hot & bothered
You get me
Hot & bothered
Come on now
Now listen
I pick you up at eight by ten we do the town
Empty my pockets just a tryin to get you down
Throw in the towel I think your games are such a bore
Just when I think I¹ve lost you pull me to the floor
And get me hot
Ooh hot & bothered
So hot & bothered
You get me hot & bothered
So hot & bothered
Ooo you get me hot
Hot & bothered
So hot & bothered
Baby Baby Baby get me hot
Ooh you get me hot
Hot & bothered
Old man looks much younger now,
He lost his strength, respect, somehow.
Look in the mirror at what I found.
It's just the past and it's over now.
Ooooh, it's all over now.
Ooooh, it's all over now.
My heart's like a wheel, and my head's just a stone.
I got my memories, ain't got no home.
I'm falling... falling apart at the seams.
Falling... falling apart at the seams.
Old friends seem much closer now.
They stand the test of time somehow.
Look at the winner who hit the ground.
It comes around and then it goes back down.
Oooh, it's all over now.
Oooh, it's all over now.
My heart's like a wheel, and my head's turned to stone.
I got my memories, ain't got no home.
I'm falling... falling apart at the seams.
Workin' this job ain't payin' the bills
Sick and tired rat race takin' my thrills
Kickin' down a road, not a dollar in my pocket
Nighttime falls and I'm ready to rock it
I need a shot of gasoline
I'm hittin' one sixteen
I get so hot I see steam
Forget the day, 'cause we're gonna scream
Night songs, howl into the light, singin'
Night songs, makes the day right
Night songs, raise your glass, take a bite
Night songs
Ridin' to the east and ridin' to the west
Sleepin' all day, but never get a rest
Lookin' at the time stand still it ain't right
Livin' for the moment, time to get it tight
I need a shot of gasoline
I'm hittin' one sixteen
I get so hot I see steam
Forget the day, 'cause we're gonna scream
Night songs, howl into the light, singin'
Night songs, makes the day right
Night songs, raise your glass, take a bite
Night songs, ooh sing it
I need a shot of gasoline
I'm hittin' one sixteen
I get so hot I see steam
Forget the day, cause we're gonna scream
Night songs, night songs, night songs, night songs
Night songs, night songs, night songs, night songs
Night songs, night songs, night songs, night songs
I look into the mirror
Can almost count the years
The memories are clearer
Of all those things I feared
I watch the time pass slowly
It comes and goes like the waves
The sea can touch the sky at night
It's got the freedom I crave
CHORUS
I'm going through changes
In my life
I'm going through chaanges
It'll be alright
Look into a picture
A thousand years are told
Now is it any wonder
What our tomorrows hold
Our yesterdays are over
You know they go so fast
If I could rule the winds of change
You know I'd make it all last
CHORUS
Alright
I walked alone
Through the blackest night
I felt the cold
I felt the bite
I took the high road
But it ain't right
It's just the low road
In disguise
I'm going through changes
Ah yes
Everything's gonna be alright
Got to the top of an
Uphill climb
Only to look
Down the other side
Just when you think
It's on your side
This world will show you
Ain't no reason to the rhyme
I'm going through changes
Ah yea
Everything's gonna be alright
times keep a changing every day
Watch out now cause it's heading
You way
Ah yea
Seems like the world turned upside down
Seems like everything's falling down
But it's all getting better every day
Watch out now cause a good
Time's heading our way
Ah, every day

Me and Billy boy and old lady Jane
We hitched a ride, took a fast movin' train
Got to the top with our heads spinnin' round
You never know just what you got until you're comin' back
Down on the farmland Mississippi shade
The folks down there they told me take it day by day
Walk the last mile before I sleep
It'll be a while before I get my peace
With the same style I walked for years
On the last mile I can rest my fears
I got a long way to go before I reach the light of day
Monkeys on my back I gotta find a better way
Same old story never get just what you want
The more you got, the more you want
Sometimes you do and then you don't
I guess I've always been a travelin' man
'Cause when I'm movin' I can make a stand
Walk the last mile before I sleep
It'll be a while before I get my peace
With the same style I walked for years
On the last mile I can rest my fears
Don't know where I'm going, but I know where I've been
Look around me everybody's trying to win
On the last mile
On the last mile
I guess I've always been a travelin' man
'Cause when I'm movin' I can make a stand, yeah, yeah
And walk the last mile before I sleep
It'll be a while before I get my peace
With the same style I walked for years
On the last mile I can rest my fears
The last mile before I sleep
It'll be a while before I get my peace
With the same style I walked for years
On the last mile I can rest my fears
The last mile before I sleep
It'll be a while before I get my peace
With the same style I walked for years
On the last mile I can rest my fears
You¹re wearin out
your welcome wagon
Scraped ya up to drag ya
Home on the range you got the flame
So now you suck some honeys
Comb your hair get out of bed
And wash your face, now look you¹re all
Alone in your room you feel the gloom
So now you curse the day you¹re
Sorry you missed the boat
Sorry that¹s all she wrote
I don¹t wanna hear it
Mm you talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
I don¹t wanna hear it
T-T-Talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
You talk of love and hope someday
You won¹t be feeling so
Neglected, all your promises
And now you turn to me and scream
It¹s hectic at the bottom
And it¹s lonely at the top, so run to
Mommy¹s always waitin
But this time she blew her top,
you say you¹re
Sorry you missed the boat
Sorry that¹s all she wrote
I don¹t wanna hear it
Mm your talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
I don¹t wanna hear it
T-T-Talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
I don¹t wanna hear it
Ah your talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
I don¹t wanna hear it
T-T-Talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
Sorry you missed the boat
Sorry that¹s all she wrote
I don¹t wanna hear it
Mm your talk is cheap
I don¹t wanna know
I don¹t wanna heart it
T-T-Talk is cheap
I met this girl around quarter to ten
We made it once, she said "make me again."
She wrapped her love around me all night long
In the mornin we were still goin strong
Now let me tell ya, it sure feels good
First time I saw that girl I knew it would
Now let me tell ya, it sure felt right
No pullin teeth, she didn't want to fight, she said
Shake me, all night, she said
Shake me, shake it, don't break it baby
Shake me, all night, she said
All night long
All night long baby
Screamed and scratched and rolled out of the bed
I never really got her out of my head
And now and then she makes those social calls
Gives me a squeeze, gets me kickin' the walls
Now let me tell ya, it still feels tight
And we were shakin' after every bite
I feel her comin' in the middle of the night
Screamin' higher
Shake me, all night, she said
Shake me, shake it, don't break it baby
Shake me, all night, she said
Shake me, oh yeah
All night, keep the fire burnin',
'Cause were doin' all right
All night, come on and shake it right
Shake me
Shake me
Shake me
Shake me
Shake me all night, she said
Shake me, shake it, don't break it baby
Shake me, all night, she said
Shake me, oh yeah
Shake me
Shake me, yeah
Shake me
Oh come on baby baby
Shake me
I was born on the dawn of a new society
And I feel lucky that my eyes could see
People stadning up and being
Who they want to be
People made the music
and the music set them free
Now I was just a baby through
The summer of love they say
But it still feels like it was yesterday
And if the road gets rough
I pick up my guitar and play
It's always been right by my side
To help me on my way
CHORUS
Now I don't need to worry 'bout tomorrow
Aain't anticipating what's to come
And I don't need to worry 'bout
The things I have not done
Long as I got rock and roll
I'm forever young
Now we can't always understand the world
Farther along we'll understand it all
The '70s looked like we all
Were headed for a fall
But those who listened hard enough
Could hear the summer call
Now I was growing up through all of this
My first beer and love and my first kiss
You never learn the things in school
You learn by living and going through
You taught me to be myself
How can I thank you
CHORUS
Play a little now
CHORUS
Ain't it the truth
I can't tell ya baby what went wrong
I can't make you feel what you felt so long ago
I'll let it show
I can't give you back what's been hurt
Heartaches come and go
And all that's left are the words
I can't let go
If we take some time to think it over baby
Take some time, let me know
If you really want to go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got it's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
I can't feel the things that cause you pain
I can't clear my heart of your love it falls like rain
Ain't the same
I hear you calling far away
Tearing through my soul
I just can't take another day
Who's to blame
If we take some time to think it over baby
Take some time let me know
If you really wanna go
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got it's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
Do you wanna see me beggin' baby
Can't you give me just one more day
Can't you see my heart's been draggin' lately
I've been lookin' for the words to say
Don't know what you got till it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got it's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
Yeah, you don't know what you got till it's gone, no
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got it's just this song
And it ain't easy to get back
Takes so long
I took a walk on a road
It's the road I was meant to stay
I see the fire in your eyes
But a man's got to make his way
So are you tough enough for my love?
Just close your eyes to the heaven above
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I took a ride in a world
I'll be spinnin' for the rest of my life
I feel your heart beatin' baby
Oooh sometimes it cuts like a knife
So are you tough enough for my love?
Just close your eyes to the heaven above
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home where your love tonight
Can shine on me
I'm coming home where your loving arms
Can set me free
(solo)
I took a walk on a road
It's the road I was meant to stay
I see the fire in your eyes
But a man's got to make his way
So are you tough enough for my love?
Just close your eyes to the heaven above
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Oh yeah
I'm on my way
Oh yeah
I'm coming home
Ooh ooh
I'm coming home
Here we go
Ooh yeah, ooh
I'm on my way
Come on baby, come on now
Let your love, shine on me
Sing along, I'm on my way
Come on baby, oooh oooh oooh oooh
Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Come on baby, I'm on my way
Come on baby, let your love, shine on me
Oh yeah, shine on me
Oh yeah, shine on, shine on me
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Well I¹ve been walkin
Down a one way dirty street
Tryin to find the answers
And I¹ve been hopin
For a chance to meet
The rat that spread the cancer
And the lies they¹ve been spinnin
And the smiles they¹ve been grinnin
There has sure been some sinnin
But nobody¹s winnin
When the walls start to crumblin
You feel like you¹re stumblin
And nobody wants you when you¹re down
They took the boy from the city
But they can¹t take the city from
the boys lookin¹ pretty
Now he¹s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can¹t get
You can¹t get blood from a stone
You can¹t get blood from a stone
Well I¹m a rollin
But my train¹s gone off the tracks
and my wheels are spinnin
And I¹m a walkin
Down a one way dirty street
But my heart¹s not sinkin
From the love they¹ve been buyin
And the blues they¹ve been cryin
Now the time keeps a flyin
But nobody¹s tryin
Cause the love of the money
Didn¹t turn out so sunny
When the well¹s dry
No one comes around
They took the boy from the city
But they can¹t take the city from the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he¹s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can¹t get
You can¹t get from a stone
You can try
But I still got the fight in my eyes
Suck it dry
Cause I¹ve had about enough of your lies
They took the boy from the city
But they can¹t take the city form the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he¹s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can¹t get blood from a stone
They took the boy form the city
But they can¹t take the city from the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he¹s looking like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can¹t get
When I get up in the morning
Got a world of trouble on my mind
And nothin seems too easy
When your clock¹s tickin quarter to five
Make my way down to the door
Can¹t put my troubles on no shelf
Cause when nobody worries for you
You got to worry for youself
Cruisin in my four wheels
It¹s got everything I need inside
Think I¹ll stop and fill it up for the ride
Man said that be twenty dollars
Mister, by the way how¹s your health
I said mister here¹s your money
Now you keep your questions for yourself
And it¹s my life that I¹m livin
Wouldn¹t want to be no one else
So if you don¹t like how I dot it
Ya better keep it to yourself
Kick it in
When I get up in the morning
Got a world of trouble on my mind
And nothin seems too easy
When your clock¹s tickin quarter to nine
Make my way down to the door
Can¹t put my troubles on no shelf
Cause when nobody worries for you
You got to worry for yourself
And it¹s my life that I¹m livin
Wouldn¹t want to be no one else
So if you don¹t like how I do it
Ya better keep it to yourself
And it¹s my life that I¹m livin
Wouldn¹t want to be no one else
So if you don¹t like how I do it

When I was just a little girl,
My mama used to tuck me into bed,
And she'd read me a story.
[CHANEL:]
It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory.
[DORINDA:]
I'd lie in bed
And think about
The person that I wanted to be,
[AQUA:]
then one day I realized
The fairy tale life wasn€™t for me.
[CHORUS €" ALL:]
I don€™t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
I don€™t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side
Don€™t wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I€™d rather rescue myself.
[ALL:]
Someday im gonna find Someone
who wants my soul, heart and mind
Whos not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand im happy just the way i am
Dont need nobody taking care of me
(i will be there)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 €" ALL:]
I don€™t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (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 somebody's on my side
Don€™t wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I€™d rather rescue myself.
[ALL:]
I can slay (I can slay) my own dragons. (My own dragons)
I can dream my own dreams. (My own dreams)
My knight in shining armor (shining armor) is me.
So I'm gonna set me free.
[CHORUS €" ALL:]
I don€™t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free.
I don€™t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white
Unless somebody's on my side
I don€™t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody (oh -Oh) to come and set me free.
I don€™t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me

Unless somebody's on my side
Don€™t wanna depend

I€™d rather rescue myself.
I don€™t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,

[ Doyle Holly ]
So you've found your Prince Charming was just a dream
There wasn't any Palace and you weren't a Queen
In your faded cotton dresses anyone could see but they're still Cinderella to me
Cinderella Cinderella this is not the way love should be
Cinderella Cinderella won't you let me take you home with me
Our honeymoon may not be a fancy ball
You may not have a maid and butler at your call
But I'll be more than any prince could ever be and you'll be Cinderella to me
Cinderella Cinderella...
She is just passing through
Last year and the year before
She is just passing through you
She washed the day away
instead of making it allright
She washed the day away
- How brave
You don't have to let her in
just listen and let her begin
She is Cinderella in desguise [sic]
or The Mermaid in despite
of her very human feet
dancing in her Ballroom Suite
You never did treat her well
oh, sure you had nice words to sell
You never did treat her well
- and you know it
She has come here today
and I don't think she's here to stay
Cinderella has to go
oh, I wish it was not so
As the clock soon will strike twelve
we will find her as herself
Many hours ago took off my coat and faced a cold
A language that I am familiar with
In my mind
I'm striking you dead but your absolutely fabulous
Diamond eyes shoot your scars and fake a smile
You're olive
And easily crushed
Well maybe I'll try this time
For my friends
Because tonight is for all of them
And someday
I'll make you mine
Someday
A billion hours ago choked on the coal stuck in my throat
A feeling that I am familiar with
Razor wrists lie the gorgeous words that will put her under my skin
But I'm alone again
Well maybe I'll try this time
For my friends
Because tonight is for all of them
And someday
I'll make you mine
Someday
Hey Cinderella
Hey Cinderella
I'm a viscous admirer
A fairy tale liar
A fairy tale liar
Well maybe I'll try this time
For my friends
Because tonight is for all of them
And someday
I'll make you mine
Someday
If you wake up and don't want to smile
If it takes just a little while
Open your eyes and look at the day
You'll see things in a different way
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Why not think about times to come
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Don't you look back
Don't you look back
Don't you look back
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
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 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 got to be, an equal thing
(Chorus)
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
Cinderella are you really that happy?
Cinderella are you really that lucky?
I wanna know is your life like you dreamed?
Here I am
Trying to find my way
I've kissed so many frogs, but I've never found a prince
I think they lied
I was promised much more than this
Where's my happy-ever-after?
(Is the queen of the kingdom)
Cinderella is the queen of a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my happy end
Cinderella got a prince and a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my fairy-tale?
Something's wrong
'cause all my glass shoes break
And no one's ever helped this damsel in distress
To hell with this
I'm not gonna waste more time
I won't wait to find prince charming
(Is the queen of the kingdom)
Cinderella is the queen of a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my happy end
Cinderella got a prince and a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my fairy-tale?
Cinderella are you really that happy?
Cinderella are you really that lucky?
I wanna know is your life like you dreamed?
Cinderella are you really that happy?
Cinderella are you really that lucky?
I wanna know is your life like you dreamed?
Cinderella are you really that happy?
Cinderella are you really that lucky?
I wanna know is your life like you dreamed?
Here I am
Trying to find my way
I've kissed so many frogs, but I've never found a prince
I think they lied
I was promised much more than this
Where's my happy-ever-after?
(Is the queen of the kingdom)
Cinderella is the queen of a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my happy end
Cinderella got a prince and a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my fairy-tale?
Cinderella is the queen of a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my happy end
Cinderella got a prince and a kingdom
Cinderella got the dream she was dreamin'
I wanna know where is my fairy-tale?
My father spent his days working on the outside
Breaking his back to put clothes on mine
When I think of all, all, all of my heroes
He is the first one that comes to my mind, my mind
My mother filled my head with beautiful daydreams
Someday you'll be a king or the president
You know some days, I still believe her
But today I?m too busy trying to scrape up my rent
Come on Cinderella
Fold your umbrella
Feel the rain
'Cause it ain't so strange
And I got a brother who?s a sinner
He grows a strange crop in his backyard
When the cops come and take him away would they even care
That he taught his little brother how to play his guitar?
Come on Cinderella
Fold your umbrella
Feel the rain
'Cause it ain't so strange
Cinderella
Oh feel the rain
'Cause it ain't so strange
Cinderella
yes, my dancing fella?
are you my girl?
you know I am!
do you feel good?
I feel alright?
that makes me feel good
out of sight
when you feel left out
I know what that's all about
wanna (?) be left out with you
Cinderella
yes, my dancing fella?
are you my girl?
you know i am
ah honey do you feel good?
I feel alright!
that makes me feel good
out of sight
oh, you feel left out
I know what that's all about
I wanna (?) be left out with you
on the long walk home
way down that old suburban road
you took me by surprise with that
sweet look in your eyes
Cinderella
yes, my dancing fella
sure you still my girl?
you know I am
oh honey do you feel good?
I feel alright!
that makes me feel good
out of sight
on the long walk home
way down that old suburban road
you took me by surprise with that
There's a place that we ought to go to, be alone
If it's cool with you I'll take you there
Seems a little pretentious if I assume
You might just follow me,
So I'll walk ten steps behind
If you're looking for love,
You ain't gonna find it here,
It's all about fear,
Get your pretty self over here now
And if you want me to know,
You best be explainin' yourself,
'Cause I got a few questions of my own.
Why don't you tell me what you think
About those ladies, ladies, ladies,
And I'll tell you what I think
About them fellas, fellas, fellas,
I'll show to you the reason,
I'll show you I'm the one, to make it right
There's a life that we try to hide and, move away
When the clock strikes twelve
Are you Cinderella poor or princess now,
Why the mess of lies and phony, advertising, yeah,
When it's gonna hurt you,
Not gonna hurt him when he's got another glass slipper
If you're looking for love,
You ain't gonna find it here,
It's all about fear,
Get your pretty self over here now
And if you want me to know,
You best be explainin' yourself,
'Cause I got a few questions of my own.
Why don't you tell me what you think
About those ladies, ladies, ladies,
And I'll tell you what I think
About them fellas, fellas, fellas,
I'll show to you the reason,
I'll show you I'm the one, to make it right
This is what I heard her say:
I'm the girl with the pretty blue eyes
Who wants to love tonight
I'm the guy who knows
How to give the lovin' that is right,
But she said:
I'm the girl with the pretty little smile
Who wants to show you how
I'm the guy who didn't really care one back or even now
but...
If you're looking for love,
You ain't gonna find it here,
It's all about fear,
Get your pretty self over here now
And if you want me to know,
You best be explainin' yourself,
'Cause I got a few questions of my own.
Why don't you tell me what you think
About those ladies, ladies, ladies,
And I'll tell you what I think
About them fellas, fellas, fellas,
I'll show to you the reason,

I'm getting sick of this
This fighting's killing me
There was a time when I'd gladly
Would take this crap from you
Yeah you were worth the pain
But now its just a twisted game
Someday, someway, I'l say, no way
To you, what else can I do
This war, I swore, meant more, before
You see, when you meant everything to me
You used to yell at me
It used to turn me on
But suddenly the feelings gone
Now I just see your mouth
And all the words get lost
And it cant help but turn me off
Someday, someway, I'll say, no way
To you, what else can I do
This war, I swore, meant more, before
You see, when you meant everything to me
Times up, I've had, enough of you
There was a time and place
You smack me in the face
And that would be ok
It's not ok today, today, no way
Someday, someway, I'll say, no way
To you, what else can I do
This war, I swore, meant more, before
I know life is hard, being with me
But I love you and you're the only girl for me
So listen...
[Verse 1:]
I want to be your foundation
And build us up to the sky
'Cause the type of love we have
No money can buy
You give me plenty of lights
To keep me out of the dark
So when I tell you I love you
It's coming straight from my heart
You give me everything I need
Do you give anymore
I would die for you
But you're the one I'm living for
You would make any man happy
And I'm glad it's me
So when I make you my wife
You know how happy we'll be
'Cause you're the best thing
That ever happened to me
'Cause I was meant for you
And you were meant for me
You're the only one
In my brown I see
And you're more beautiful
Than any girl can ever be
I place the one above you
'Cause the way that you love me
And when my world is crashing down
You make my rainy days sunny
I see everything I need
When I look in your eyes
So make me your promise and tell me
That you'll always be mine
[Chorus:]
You are my princess, my Cinderella
I would do most anything to make you smile on me
You are my home, you are my sun
I thank GOD you're the only one
My Princess, My Cinderella
[Verse 2:]
Just the little things you do
That make me love you so much
And I'm so into you
No one can seperate us
I need your purty fac, little waist, baby there's no time to waste
I don't want no other girl
You couldn't be replaced
You're so valuable to me
Like a beautiful pearl
And you're the only girl
That I'll ever need in this world
I couldn't picture me without you
Like no water in the sea
Like no birds in no trees
You mean everything to me
When the rain is falling then, you're there I'm loving that day
When the rain is falling then, you're there I'm hating that day
And you don't ever have to doubt me
'Cause I'm always here for you
And I appreciate every little thing that you do
You got me doing things that I'd never thought I'd do
I'm living my life better now
And it's because of you
And I can never complain
Because you keep me satisfied
And I can never be without you
So please stay by my side
[Chorus:]
You are my princess, my Cinderella
I would do most anything to make you smile on me
You are my home, you are my sun
I thank GOD you're the only one
When I was just a little girl
My mama 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 wanted 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 ridin' side by side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
Some day I'm gonna find someone
Who wants me body, 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 long as he will be there for me
Whenever I give myself
That it has got to be an equal seat
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free no no
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 ridin' side by side
Don't wanna 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 armor, is me
So, I'm gonna set me free
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 ridin' side by side
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 ridin' side by side
Don't wanna 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 no no
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 ridin' side by side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
Once you've met Cinderella
Tell her you wanna take her home
And make her stay forever
Unless you wanna die alone
You need a guardian angel
Tell her you wanna take her home
Don't you ever try to change her
Unless you wanna die alone
You wanna try, and you say you'll try but you never do
You wanna try, but you make it hard to believe in you
You wanna try, but you always fail, and you wonder why
Wonder why...
It’s a little girl fantasy:
“Will you marry me, complete me,
Make my life whole?
Will you take good care of me?
Save me, turn my lead into gold?”
This little girl fantasy is on TV,
In magazines at the corner store.
My daddies told me I had to be
The woman’s way, sweet virgin saint or unconscious whore
Cinderella, you’re looking for a fella
To make ya whole, don’t ya know?
Cinderella, you are stellar!
Don’t ya know? Don’t ya know? You ought to know!
Cinderella, Cindereeeeeelle!
Cinder, Cinderella-ha-ha-ha!
You’re stellar! Ya don’t need a fella!
Cinder, Cinderella-ha-ha-ha!
You’re stellar! Ya don’t need a fella!
Oh no, don’t ya know?
This little girl fantasy is a legacy,
Pre-antiquity from times of old.
My mommies did the same as me
Let patriarchy turn their souls stone cold
Cinderella, you’re looking for a fella
To make ya whole, don’t ya know?
Cinderella, you are stellar! Don’t ya know? You ought to know!
Cinderella, Cindereeeeeelle!
Cinder, Cinderella-ha-ha-ha!...
Well, I don’t need your glass slipper.
I like my shoe just fine thanks.
Have you noticed how beautiful my soul is?
Cinderella, you’re stellar! Ya don’t need a fella!
Cinder, Cinderella-ha-ha-ha!...
Cinderella-la-la-la-la-la
Cinderella lyrics:
(verse 1)
Please darling come out of your spell
Cause I miss you, I miss you
I know this air is cold and bare
But I'll hold you, I'll hold you
(bridge)
I know the summer nights they died so long ago
I felt the fall between our lives when I let you go
And if there's a will there is a chance
Here's to reaching for your hand
(Chorus)
Pour your eyes into mine
And tell me you can't say good bye
These closing statements I will pry them open
Bring dire chances back to life back to life
Back to life
ohhh
(Verse 2)
Oh I know well I know your loss for words
And it's alright it's alright
Before it gets better it gets worse
And I'll fight with you all night
(bridge)
They say that summer nights they died just let it go
And there's a fall between our lives starting to show
And if Cinderella left the dance
Before midnight came and went
The world would never know so
Know so
(Chorus)
Pour your eyes into mine
And tell me you can't say good bye
These closing statements I will pry them open
Bring dire chances back to life
Back to life
(bridge)
Cinderella, it's not midnight
Cinderella, it's not midnight
Cinderella, it's not midnight
Cinderella, it's not midnight
Cinderella, it's not midnight
It's not midnight
I miss you
I miss you
Come out of your spell

Drop to the dance floor and she caught my eye
Took her by the hand and we danced the night
I show that picture make sure you're gonna stay right here
I'll be right back
She... on the dance floor
While I buy her drinks
She disappeared so quickly
Where could she be
Searched around and around
Tell me why did she leave me
Got to get to know her name
I'm running out
I got to find my Cinderella
Got until midnight
To find her and make her all mine
Cause I know that you are out there I got to make my way to you
Oh I got to find you tonight
I got to find you tonight
Tonight tonight
Whatever I got to do
I'll do to find my Cinderella
Walk up to the bar
Sat down with my two drinks
Feeling lucky and out of this disbelieve
Look up at the TV and she was right there
Baby the reason why I...
She took of the dance floor
While I bought as drink
Disappeared so quickly
Where could she be
Searched around and around
Tell me why did she leave me
Got to get to know her name
I'm running out
I got to find my Cinderella
Got until midnight
To find her and make her all mine
Cause I know that you are out there I got to make my way to you
Oh I got to find you tonight
I got to find you tonight
Tonight tonight
Whatever I got to do
I'll do to find my Cinderella
I got to find a way
My Cinderella
[Repeats]
I got to find my Cinderella
Got until midnight
To find her and make her all mine
Cause I know that you are out there I got to make my way to you
Oh I got to find you tonight
I got to find you tonight
Tonight tonight
Whatever I got to do
I saw you falling with your head in the sky
I tried to leave it but I need to know why
Cos I like you and I'd like to tell you how it is
But there's no way down for me
Hey Cinderella
I come and get ya
Let's get together
Under the stormy weather
I don't think you thought this through
Cos you need me and I want you
I see you laughing every once in a while
Like Mona Lisa with that million dollar smile
When you find it
Don't fight it
Cos things are gonna change
Oh there's no way down for me
Hey Cinderella
I come and get ya
Let's get together
Under the stormy weather
I don't think you thought this through
Cos you need me and I want you
We're just a step away
And I know you feel it too
Just like those northern skies
There's no divide
I can't hide from you
Hey Cinderella
Let's get toghether
I come and get ya
I come and get ya
Hey Cinderella
Let's get together
Under the stormy weather
I don't think you thought this through
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
If you'll be my prince, I'll be your Cinderella
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Fall in love with me, before the night is over
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Dancing with my prince in the moonlight
It's like a dream come true
Time is running out, now it's midnight
I have to run away from you
Soon I will break the magic spell
And take his love away
Fairy, won't you rescue me?
So I can make him stay
If you'll be my prince, I'll be your Cinderella
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Fall in love with me, before the night is over
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
I'm alone, I need my prince to save me
To bring me back my shoe
Prince, I long to feel your magic
Please, don't break my heart in two
Soon I will break the magic spell
And take his love away
Fairy, won't you rescue me?
So I can make him stay
If you'll be my prince, I'll be your Cinderella
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Fall in love with me, before the night is over
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
Na-na-na-na-na (oh-e-oh)
If you'll be my prince, I'll be your Cinderella
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Fall in love with me, before the night is over
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
If you'll be my prince, I'll be your Cinderella
Cinderella oh-oh-oh
Fall in love with me, before the night is over
INTRO
Im not your little princess anymore
Are you feeling this now put your hands up in the air now
Are you feeling this now put your hands up in the air
Gonna get ya gonna (repeated)
VERSE 1:
Boy it's your problem you wasted my time and
I thought that I told you i've made up my mind.
Whatever defence you've put up, just give in,
Coz you had it, you lost it, so don't you deny it.
BRIDGE:
I must be an insomniac if it wasn't for the way you were talkin' back
I don't need a sequel, Im gonna fade this show to black.
CHORUS:
I'm not another Cinderella
Waitin' for a Rockafella
If the shoe don't fit, then that's it
I don't need a storyteller
(repeat)
VERSE 2:
I can't believe it was love at first sight coz
It feels like it's over or maybe it's me
Something you said or you did or you wanted
Money can't buy and it just isn't free
BRIDGE:
I must be an insomniac if it wasn't for the way you were talkin back
I don't need a sequel, gonna fade this show to black.
CHORUS X 2
(I'm not your little princess anymore)
(Ha ha)
Get it?
I'm not your Cinderella
You're not my Rockafella
I'm not your Cinderella
Don't want no Storyteller
Yeah what yo let me introduce myself
I'm the girl that you keep tryin to play
Me for your wealth
You say that baby you're into me
But you love yourself
I don't want any of your money
Baby and I think that's funny
'Coz you're by yourself
And ah, I'm not your Cinderella
Gotta get another fella
Gotta get a man that understands
