Over deze songtekst:

Brandon Flowers, de zanger, schreef het lied toen zijn moeder te horen kreeg dat zij kanker had. Cinderella in het lied is zijn moeder. De 'slick chrome American prince' is zijn vader. Het lied werd uitgebracht op single in 2009. Deze nieuwe versie met Bruce Springsteen is uit 2021.

A dustland fairytale beginning
Just another white trash
County kiss
In Sixty-One
Long brown hair and foolish eyes

He looks just like you want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American prince
A blue jean serenade
Moon River what'd you do to me
But I don't believe you

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the minute that I turned away
I got my money on a pawn tonight

A change came in disguise of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She said she'd always knew he'd come around

And the decades disappear like sinking
Ships, but we persevere, God gives us hope
But we still fear what we don't know
The mind is poison
 
Castle in the sky
Sit stranded vandalized
The drawbridge is closing

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending when they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Straight to the Valley of the Great Divide
Out where the dreams all hide
And where the wind don't blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky don't snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die
 
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
It's such a bitter form of refuge
Ah don't you know the kingdom’s under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the cadence of a young man's eyes
Out where the dreams all hide
