"Prinderella" performed by Learnin' Vernon

*Hollywood!
Ok truth is I was there for a taping of the Pyramid show and they asked for talent between takes as an audience warm up. I told "Prinderella" to the delight of the studio audience which included its host. No money exchanged hands but my wife personally met Donnie Osmond and shook his hand; that was priceless.

**Learning would be correct english, however Learnin' Vernon rolls off of the tongue.
