I never wanted a week night
I always wanted a cowboy
I never dreamed of a castle in the clouds
Just a cabin on the edge of town
So welcome to the country girl fairytale Running down the dirt road, pennies in a wishing well
Hey, I got a plan for some Tennessee land
The snow that's in the river I'll sing at later on
Little house on 20 acres of all of you
Our very little own happy ever after
And all our dreams come true
And all our dreams come true
I really like how the artist translated the qualities of fairy tales into her own life because it is a clear example of the idea that every women's image of a fairy tale is different. She explains that she doesn't want to live in a castle, as she is content in a cabin. Also, she has her own wishing well and water that she will sing in to as Snow White does. She then mentions one of the most memorable phrases in fairy tales, 'happy ever after.' It is their 'own little happy ever after.' Everyone has different dreams and therefore their own fairy tales.
