Fast Car Songtext

von Mutya Buena

You've got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero we've got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself i've got nothing to prove

You 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
His body's too young to look like this
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
Pack that sud and that's what I did.

You've got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We've got to make a decision
We leave tonight or we can die this way

(Chorus):

I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast feel like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder
And I had the feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You've got a fast car
And I've got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking 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 would find it
I've got no plans and I aint going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

(Chorus):

I remember when ?

You've got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We've got to make a decision
We leave tonight or we can die this way
