Tracy Chapman


You got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere,
maybe we make a deal, maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better, starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something, me myself, I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car, I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the 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

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 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

You got a fast car, is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision, leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when were driving, driving in your car,
the 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 feeling I could be someone,
be someone, be someone

You got a fast car, we go cruising to entertain ourselves,
you still ain't got a job and I work in a market as a check-out 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

So remember when were driving driving in your car,
the 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 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, leave tonight or live and die this way


Finns det någon bättre låt... jag tvivar på det.
