Disney - Disney-Cinderella Lyrics

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 with the glory

I 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
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 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

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)
