Fast Car

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
'Cause me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
Been working at the 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 that it really means to be living
See 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 had a feeling that I belonged
And I had feeling I could be someone' be someone' be someone
I say my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it was
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 he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
That's what I did
See 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 had a feeling that I belonged
And I had feeling I could be someone' be someone' be someone
I say 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
