  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 we'll make something 

  Me myself, I got nothing to prove

  You got a fast car 

  I got a plan to get us outta here 

  I been working at the 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 

  Finally see what it means to be living

  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 

  His body's too young to look like his 

  When momma went off and left him 

  She wanted more from life than he could give 

  Said somebody's gotta take care of him 

  So I quit school that's what I did

  You got a fast car 

  Is it fast enough so we can fly away? 

  We gotta make a decision 

  Leave tonight or, live and die this way

  So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car 

  Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk 

  City lights, lay out before us 

  And your arms felt nice wrapped around my shoulder and 

  I-----I  

  had a feeling that I belonged 

  I-----I  

  had a feeling I, could be someone,  

  be someone, be someone

  You got a fast car 

  We go cruising into entertain ourselves 

  You still ain't got a job 

  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 bigger house and live in the suburbs

  S5:
  You got a fast car 

  I've got a job pays all our bills 

  You stay out drinking late at the bars 

  See more your friends than you do your kids 

  I always hoped for better 

  That 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
