HERE’S A STORY ABOUT LOVE, IT HAPPENED BACK IN 1939
GRANDDADDY WAS DIRT POOR AND HEAD OVER HEELS
FOR A LOCAL CASHIER WITH BLUE EYES
HE DIDN’T EVEN OWN A CAR BUT HE WALKED THERE TWICE A WEEK
IT WAS 3 MILES TO TOWN BUT HE WOULD HAVE WALKED A HUNDRED
FOR A KISS ON THE CHECK
WELL, THIS AIN’T NO CINDERELLA STORY
THERE’S NO PRINCE CHARMING ON A BIG WHITE HORSE
JUST A PLOWBOY WITH A JOHN DEERE TRACTOR
MEETS A PRETTY GIRL AT THE GENERAL STORE
AND THEY STUCK LIKE GLUE FOREVER
BECAUSE THE STRONGEST BOND IN THE WORLD
IS WHEN A GOOD OL’ BOY LOVES A COUNTRY GIRL
HE WENT TO FIGHT OVERSEAS AND THOUGH HE WAS A 1,000 MILES AWAY
SHE NEVER LEFT HIS MIND AND HE ALWAYS TOOK THE TIME
TO WRITE HER EVERYDAY
WHEN HE MADE IT BACK HOME IT WAS THE FIRST TIME
HE SAW HIS DAUGHTER’S FACE, AS IT DOES TIME FLEW
SHE WAS DATING BEFORE HE KNEW IT HE WAS GIVING HER AWAY
WELL, THIS AIN’T NO CINDERELLA STORY
THERE’S NO PRINCE CHARMING ON A BIG WHITE HORSE
JUST A HOMEGROWN SOLDIER’S DAUGHTER
MEETS THE FARMER’S SON NEXT DOOR
AND THEY STUCK LIKE GLUE FOREVER
BECAUSE THE STRONGEST BOND IN THE WORLD
IS WHEN A GOOD OL’ BOY LOVES A COUNTRY GIRL
I’M JUST THE SON OF A SOLDIER’S DAUGHTER
BABY,.THAT’S WHERE I COME FROM
ROYALTY I’LL NEVER BE BUT IF ALL YOU WANT’S MY LOVE
THIS CAN BE YOUR CINDERELLA STORY
I CAN BE PRINCE CHARMING IN MY PICK UP TRUCK
WE CAN BUILD OUR DREAMS IN A DOUBLE WIDE CASTLE
AND SEE WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR US
WE’LL STICK LIKE GLUE FOREVER
BECAUSE THE STRONGEST BOND IN THE WORLD
IS WHEN A GOOD OL’ BOY LOVES A COUNTRY GIRL
AND THIS GOOD OL’ BOY LOVES THIS COUNTRY GIRL
