You've got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
maybe together
we can get somewhere
Any place is better
starting from zero
got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
me myself
I've got nothing to prove
You've got a fast car
I've got a plan
to get us out of here
I've been working at
a convenience store
Managed save
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
finally see
what it means to be living
See, my old man's
got a problem
He lives 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 could give
I said somebody's got
to take care of him
So I quit school
and that's what I did
You've got a fast car
it fast enough
so we can fly away
We got to make cision
leave tonight
or live and die this way
So I remember we were
driving driving in your car
Speed so fast
it felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
and your arm
felt nice wrapped
around my shoulder and
I I had the feeling
that I belonged
I I had a feeling I
could be someone be someone
be someone
You've got a fast car
go cruising
entertain ourselves
still ain't got a job
now I work in 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 shelter
buy a bigger house
and live in the suburbs
I remember when 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
around my shoulder and
I had the feeling
that I belonged
And I had a feeling I
could be someone be someone
be someone
You've got a fast car
I've got a job
that pays all our bills
He stay out drinking to
late at the bar
See more of your friends
that you do of your kids
Always hoped for better
thought maybe together
you and me would find
If you've got no plans
and I ain't going nowhere
Take fast car
and keep on driving
So I remember when 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
around my shoulder and
I had feeling
that I belonged
And I feeling I
could someone be someone
be someone
You've got a fast car
is fast enough
so can fly away
You've got to make cision
we leave tonight
or live and die this way
