Lyrics
0:20You got a fast car
0:22I want a ticket to anywhere
0:24Maybe we make a deal
0:26Maybe together we can get somewhere
0:29Anyplace is better
0:31Starting from zero got nothing to lose
0:33Maybe we'll make something
0:36Me myself I got nothing to prove
0:47You got a fast car
0:50I got a plan to get us out of here
0:52I been working at the convenience store
0:54Managed to save just a little bit of money
0:57Won't have to drive too far
0:59Just 'cross the border and into the city
1:01You and I can both get jobs
1:04And finally see what it means to be living
1:15You see my old man's got a problem
1:18He live with the bottle that's the way it is
1:20He says his body's too old for working
1:22His body's too young to look like his
1:25My mama went off and left him
1:27She wanted more from life than he could give
1:29I said somebody's got to take care of him
1:32So I quit school and that's what I did
1:43You got a fast car
1:46Is it fast enough that we can fly away
1:48We gotta make a decision
1:50Leave tonight or live and die this way
2:01So I remember we were driving driving in your car
2:05Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
2:07City lights lay out before us
2:09And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
2:11And I I had a feeling that I belonged
2:16And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone
2:33You got a fast car
2:35We go cruising to entertain ourselves
2:37You still ain't got a job
2:40I work at a market as a checkout girl
2:42I know things will get better
2:44You'll find work and I'll get promoted
2:47We'll move out of the shelter
2:49Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
3:00So I remember we were driving driving in your car
3:03Speed so fast felt like I was drunk
3:06City lights lay out before us
3:08And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
3:11And I I had a feeling that I belonged
3:15And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone
3:32You got a fast car
3:34I got a job that pays all our bills
3:37You stay out drinking late at the bar
3:39See more of your friends than you do of your kids
3:41I'd always hoped for better
3:43Thought maybe together you and me would find it
3:46I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
3:48So take your fast car and keep on driving
3:58So I remember we were driving driving in your car
4:02Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
4:05City lights lay out before us
4:07And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
4:09And I I had a feeling that I belonged
4:14And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone
4:31You got a fast car
4:33But is it fast enough so you can fly away
4:35You gotta make a decision
4:37Leave tonight or live and die this way
You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Anyplace is better Starting from zero got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me myself I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just 'cross the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs And finally see what it means to be living You see my old man's got a problem He live with the bottle that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his My mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said somebody's got to take care of him So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough that we can fly away We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way So I remember we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I I had a feeling that I belonged And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car We go cruising to entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job I work at a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs So I remember we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I I had a feeling that I belonged And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So I remember we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I I had a feeling that I belonged And I I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car But is it fast enough so you can fly away You gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way
