Fast Car (Live FM Broadcast Remastered)

Mm-mm-hm-hm
Mm-mm-hm-mm, mm-mm
Hm-mm, hm-hm

You got a fast car
And 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
But me, myself, I got nothin' to prove

Mm-mm, mm-hm-hm

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us outta here
Been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
And 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

See, my old man's got a problem
He live with a bottle, that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for workin'
Says 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 say, "Somebody's gotta take care of him"
So I quit school and that's what I did

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

'Cause I remember when we were drivin', driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
The city lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

Mm, mm-hm-hm-mm

You got a fast car
And we go cruisin', entertain ourselves
You still ain't got 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 bigger house and live in the suburbs

'Cause I remember when we were drivin', driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
The city lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

Mm, mm-hm-hm

You got a fast car
I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinkin' late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together, you and me find it
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on drivin'

'Cause I remember when we were drivin', driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
The city lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

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

Mm, mm-hm-hm-hm-mm
Mm, mm-hm, hm-hm-mm-hm
