 Intro (2X)

 I came to see her daddy for sit down man to man

It wasn't any secret i'd be asking for her hand

 I guess that's why he left me waiting in the living room by myself

 with at least a dozen pictures of her sitting on a shelf

 She was playing Cinderella

 She was riding her first bike

Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight

Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin

Dancing with her dad, looking up at him

 In her eyes i'm Prince Charming

 But to him i'm just some fella

riding in and stealing Cinderella

 I leaned in towards those pictures to get a better look at one

 When I heard a voice behind me say "Now, ain't she something, son?"

 I said "Yes, she quite a woman" and he just stared at me

 Then I realized that in his eyes she would always be

Playing Cinderella

Riding her first bike

Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight

Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin

Dancing with her dad, looking up at him

 In her eyes i'm Prince Charming

 But to him i'm just some fella riding in and stealing Cinderella

He slapped me on the shoulder

 Then he called her in the room

 When she threw her arms around him

 That's when I could see it too

 She was Playing Cinderella

Riding her first bike

Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight

Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin

Dancing with her dad, looking up at him

 If he gives me a hard time

I can't blame the fella

I'm the one who's stealing Cinderella
