Fast Car

You got a fast car I wanna ticket to anywhere Maybe we'll 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 'Cause me, myself, I got nothing to prove Mm-hmm You got a fast car And I got a plan to get us outta here I been working at a convenience store I 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 find out it really means to be living Mm-hmm, yeah, hmm See I remember we were driving Driving in your car and 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 a feeling that I belonged, yeah I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone, oh Mm-hmm, yeah I said, "My old man's got a problem" He lives for the bottle, that's the way it works His body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his My momma went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "Somebody's gotta take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did Oh-oh, that's what I did, ooh See 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 a feeling that I belonged, yeah I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone Oh, yeah, ooh I said, "You got a fast car" Is it fast enough so we can fly away? We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or we can die this way
