You 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
Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose
Maybe we'll make somethin'
Me, myself, I got nothin' to prove, hey
Gonna be someone, get somewhere, babe
And you got a fast car
I've got a plan that'll get us outta here
Been workin' at the convenience store
I managed to save just a little bit of money
And we don't have to drive too far
Just cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get job
Finally see what it means to be livin'
I wanna be someone and get somewhere, don't you?
See, my old man's got a problem
He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is
He say his body's too old for workin'
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than what he could give
Said, somebody's gotta take care of him
So I quit school, it's what I did
And you got a fast car
Is it fast enough that we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
To leave tonight or live and die this way
Live and die this way, yeah
Remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car
Speed so fast, it felt like I was drunk
And the city lights lit up before us
And your arms good and nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I had a feelin' that I belonged
And I-I had a feelin' I could be someone, be someone, be someone
Be someone and get somewhere
You got a fast car
We go cruisin', entertain ourselves
Still ain't got a job
And I work at the market as a checkout boy
I know things'll 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
I wanna someone and get somewhere with you
Remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car
Speed so fast, it felt like I was drunk
And the city lights lit up before us
And your arm good and nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I had a feelin' that I belonged
And I-I had a feelin' I could be someone, be someone, be someone
So you got a fast car
You got a fast car
Yes, you got a fast car
And I've got a job pays all our bills
You stay out drinkin' late at the bars
See more of your friends than you do your kids
I'd always hoped for better
That maybe together you and me' find it
Ain't got no plans, I ain't goin' nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on drivin'
Just wanna be someone and get somewhere, baby
So you got a fast car
But is it fast enough that we could fly away?
You gotta make a decision
To leave tonight or live and die this way
You wanna be someone and get somewhere
Remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car
Speed so fast, it felt like I was drunk
And the city lights lit up before us
And your arm good and nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I had a feelin' that I belonged
And I-I had a feelin' I could be someone, be someone, be someone, yeah
