Fast Car Songtext

You got a fast car and
I got a plan to get us outta here
I 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 thе city
You and I can both get jobs
And find out what it means to be living

See I rеmember 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 arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I had a feeling that I belonged, yeah
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone, ooh

I said my old man's got a problem
He lives for the bottle, that's the way it works
His body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his
My momma went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said "Somebody's gotta take care of him"
So I quit school, and that's what I did
Oh, oh, that's what I did

See 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 arm 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
Oh, yeah, oooooh

I said 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
