Lyrics

[00:10] You got a fast car
[00:12] I want a ticket to anywhere
[00:15] Maybe we can make a deal
[00:17] Maybe together we can get somewhere
[00:19] Anyplace is better
[00:22] Starting from zero got nothing to lose
[00:24] Maybe we’ll make something
[00:26] Me myself I got nothing to prove
[00:38] You got a fast car
[00:40] And I got a plan to get us out of here
[00:42] I’ve been working at the convenience store
[00:45] Managed to save just a little bit of money
[00:47] We won’t have to drive too far
[00:49] Just cross the border and into the city
[00:52] You and I can both get jobs
[00:54] And finally see what it means to be living
[01:00] You see my old mans got a problem
[01:03] He live with the bottle that’s the way it is
[01:05] He says his body’s too old for working
[01:08] I say his body’s too young to look like his
[01:10] My mama went off and left him
[01:13] She wanted more from life than he could give
[01:15] I said somebody’s got to take care of him
[01:17] So I quit school and that’s what I did
[01:29] You got a fast car
[01:31] But is it fast enough so we can fly away
[01:33] We gotta make a decision
[01:36] We leave tonight or live and die this way
[01:41] I remember we were driving driving in your car
[01:45] The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[01:47] City lights lay out before us
[01:50] And your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder
[01:52] And I had a feeling that I belonged
[01:59] And I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
[02:15] You got a fast car
[02:17] And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
[02:20] You still ain’t got a job
[02:22] And I work in a market as a checkout line
[02:24] I know things will get better
[02:27] You’ll find work and I’ll get promoted
[02:29] We’ll move out of the shelter
[02:31] Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
[02:37] So I remember we were driving driving in your car
[02:40] The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[02:43] City lights lay out before us
[02:45] And your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder
[02:49] And I had a feeling that I belonged
[02:54] And I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
[03:20] You got a fast car
[03:22] And I got a job that pays all our bills
[03:25] You stay out drinking late at the bar
[03:27] See more of your friends than you do of your kids
[03:29] I’d always hoped for better
[03:32] Thought maybe together you and me would find it
[03:34] I got no plans I ain’t going nowhere
[03:36] So take your fast car and keep on driving
[03:44] You got a fast car
[03:46] But is it fast enough so you can fly away
[03:48] You gotta make a decision
[03:50] Leave tonight or live and die this way
[03:56] I remember we were driving driving in your car
[04:00] The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[04:02] City lights lay out before us
[04:04] And your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder
[04:08] And I had a feeling that I belonged
[04:13] And I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
