Cinderella

Last December I met a girl

She took a likin' to me

Said she loved me

But she didn't know the meanin' of the word

She imagined love to be grand

Me holdin' her hand and

Whisperin' sweet things and

Cooin' softly like a song bird

Then one mornin' she came to me

With a tear in her eye

And a sigh on her breath

And Lord she said

"Hon, I'm heavy with child"

And I said "god damn girl can't you see

That I'm breakin' my back

Just tryin' to keep my head above water

And it's turnin' me wild"

Cinderella can't you see

Don't want your company

You better leave this mornin' leave today

Take your love and your child away

No no no no, no no no no

No no no no, no no no no

No no no no, no no no no

No no no no, no no no no

No no no no, no no no no

No no no no no

Woah woah, no

Woah woah, no

Woah woah, no

Woah woah, woah woah woah, no

Rockin' chair on my front porch

Well I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did

As a young man

Now that I'm old

And I remember her and the boy

Did he have all the toys and the joys

That a young man should have

Before he gets too old

Cinderella couldn't you see

I didn't want your company

You shoulda left that mornin' left that day

Took your love and your child away
