lyrics | learn to sing Fast Car ( JAM ) Play

One, two, three, go.

Mm, 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.

Maybe we'll make something.

Me, myself, I got nothing to prove.

Mm

See my old man's got a problem. He lives with a bottle that's the way it is, say

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. So I quit school, that's what I did.

No, you got a fast car, is it fast enough so we can fly away?

We gotta make a decision, leave tonight or live in there this way.

Yeah, so remember when we were driving, driving in your car,

Speed so fast, I thought like I was drunk

City lights laid out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

And I had a feeling that I belong

I had a feeling I could be someone

Be someone, be someone

Mm

You got a fast car

We go cruisin', entertain ourselves, still ain't got a job

And I work wagon as a checkout girl, I know things will get better

You find work and I'll get promoted and move out of the shelter

Move in the suburbs, then live in the suburbs

So remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car

Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

City lights laid out before us

with your arms and plants laying on my shoulder and I had a feeling that I belong, I had a

feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone.
