Lyrics

You know, someday I believe I will be someone
And I won't stop trying until I succeed
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to get you anywhere
Maybe we can 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 got nothing to prove
Whoa, yeah, yeah
You got a fast car
I've got a plan to get us out of here
Working at a 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
Whoa, yeah, yeah
You see, my old man's got a problem
He lives with a bottle, that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to looking 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
Ooh, yeah, yeah
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We've got to make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way
So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arms felt nice wrapped around my shoulders
And I, I got a feeling that I belonged
I, I got a feeling I could be someone, be someone
Whoa, yeah, yeah
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to get you anywhere
Maybe we can 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 got nothing to prove
Whoa, yeah, yeah
You got a fast car
I've got a plan to get us out of here
Working at a 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
Ooh, yeah, yeah
You see, my old man's got a problem
He lives with a bottle, that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to looking 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"
