|
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 |
|
But me myself |
|
I got nothing to prove |
|
You got a fast car |
|
And I got a plan to get us out of here |
|
I been working at |
|
East side`s health and childrens centre |
|
Managed to save just a little bit of money |
|
We won't have to drive too far |
|
Just across 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 prescription drugs and that's the way it is |
|
He says his body's too old for working |
|
I say 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 life and that's what |
|
I did You got a fast car |
|
But is it fast enough so we can fly away |
|
We gotta make a decision |
|
We leave tonight or live and die this way 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 around my shoulder |
|
I had a feeling that |
|
I belonged |
|
I had feeling |
|
I could be someone, be someone, be someone |
|
You got a fast car |
|
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves |
|
You still dont have a job |
|
And 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 the shelter |
|
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs 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 around my shoulder |
|
I had a feeling that |
|
I belonged |
|
I had feeling |
|
I could be someone, be someone, be someone |
|
You got a fast car |
|
And 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 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 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 around my shoulder |
|
I had a feeling that |
|
I belonged |
|
I had feeling |
|
I could be someone, be someone, be someone |
|
You got a fast car |
|
But is it fast enough so we can fly away |
|
We gotta make a decision |
|
We leave tonight or live and die this way |
