Lyrics

Wishin Someday Would Come Soon

I want to be a princess,
I want to be a rodeo queen,
Placed upon a pedestal
In some poor cowboy's dream.
But to you I'm just a waitress
In this all-night cafe',
You'll lay a dollar on the table soon
And you'll be on your way.

Chorus:
I get so tired and lonely
Workin in this greasy spoon,
Waitin tables, takin tips,
Workin midnight till noon,
Hopin someday, some cowboy'll
Come and take me to the moon.
I'm wakin up and wishin,
Someday would come soon.

When you walked into the diner
all the locals turned to stare
At your steel blue eyes and Stetson hat
and long dark hair.
You smiled as big Texas,
You even said my name,
But men like you , they never stay,
It always ends the same.

Repeat Chorus.

Well I've never seen a princess
In this crazy redneck town.
And there's never been a cowboy yet,
that didn't let me down.
So tomorrow I'll be leavin,
Put a sign out on the door.
Just tell 'em Cinderella
Doesn't work here anymore.

Repeat Chorus.
