Fast Car (Radio Edit)

You 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 well make something
Me, myself, I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
Ive been working at a convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We wont 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 got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

So I remember we were driving, driving in your car
The 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 that I could be someone
Had a feeling that I could be someone

You see, my old mans got a problem
He lives with the bottle, thats the way it is
He says his bodys too old for working
I say, his bodys too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said, somebodys got to take care of him
So I quit school and thats what I did

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still aint got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will getbetter
Youll find work and Ill get promoted
Well move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

So I remember we were driving, driving in your car
The 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 that I could be someone
Had a feeling that I could be someone
Had a feeling that I could be someone
