Lyric Cinderella - Cheetah Girls
When I was just a little girl
My mama 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 my boyfriend s bed
and have so much fun
Chorus:
I don t wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting 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 were riding side by side
Don´t wanna 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 get myself that it has got to be an equal thing
(Chorus)
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
(Chorus to fade)
My mama 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 my boyfriend s bed
and have so much fun
Chorus:
I don t wanna be like Cinderella
Sitting 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 were riding side by side
Don´t wanna 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 get myself that it has got to be an equal thing
(Chorus)
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
(Chorus to fade)
