Fast Car by Wilkinsons
Fast Car lyrics
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we'll make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Baby we�ll make something
Me myself I got nothing to prove
You've got a fast car
I got a plan to get us outta here
I've been working at a 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
And finally see what it means to be living
I 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 round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone
See my old man�s got a problem
He lives with the bottle that�s the way it is
He says his body�s too old for working
I say a 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
I 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 round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain�t got a job
And I work in the 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 this trailer
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
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 your friends than you do your kids
I�d always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me'd find it
Got no plans, we ain�t going nowhere
We just take a fast car and keep on driving, oh
I remember when 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 round 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
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You got a fast car
You leave tonight or live and die this way
You got a fast car
You leave tonight or live and die this way...
