Lyrics

Cinderella's Doin the Two-Step

She wants to be a princess
She wants to be a rodeo queen
Placed upon a pedestal
in some sweet cowboy's dream
But for now she's just a waitress
At the Starlite Grill Cafe
Where the cowboys lay a dollar down
And then go on there way

Chorus:
Each night after closing she plays the same sad jukebox tune
And dances a two-step while swingin' round her broom
When she sashays by the window, you can hear the cowboys say
Cinderella's doin' the two-step at the Starlite Grill Cafe

When he walked into the diner
All the locals turned to stare
At his sparkling eyes and stetson hat
and long dark hair
And he smiled as big as Texas
He even said her name
But men like him they never stay
It always ends the same

Repeat Chorus.

She's never seen a princess
In this crazy one-horse town
And she's never met a cowboy
That didn't let her down
So one night when she's leavin
She tacks a sign onto the door-
Says , "Tell them Cinderella
doesn't work here anymore"

Repeat Chorus.
