Richard Thompson - O Cinderella Lyrics



Richard Thompson - O Cinderella Lyrics




I've been drifting along with a skeleton crew
[?] O'Grady, [?] blackjack and Willie McGrew
But I ran into trouble the day that I ran into you

I thought you was looking for money stuffed under the bed
You were talking to the mirror, I thought you was gone in the head
But you were just saying Hail Marys to comfort the dead

O Cinderella, your rags are so chíc
Did they come off the peg at your favorite boutique?
Could you please spare the time to run an old [tire?] up the creek?
Well I hope that you're listening, I'm stating my case
I say it again 'til I'm blue in the face
O Cinderella, I'm not very house-trained, it's true
But I want to make cupcakes with you

O Cinderella, you run like I'm Jack the Ripper
Won't you trade up your rags and slide your foot in the slipper?
You're working-class cool, but a glass slipper is hipper

O Cinderella, your rags are so chíc
Did they come off the peg at your favorite boutique?
Could you please spare the time to run an old [?] up the creek?
Oh I hope that you're listening, I'm stating my case
I say it again 'til I'm blue in the face
O Cinderella, I'm not very house-trained, it's true
But I want to dust cobwebs with you
Cobwebs with you
I want to dust cobwebs with you
