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  But me myself I got nothing to prove    You got a fast car  I got a plan to get us out of here  been working at the convenience store  Managed to save just a little bit of money  We 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 live with the bottle that's the way it is  He says his body's too old for working  I say his body's too young to look like his  but 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  We leave tonight or live and die this way    So remember when we were driving driving in your car  The speed so fast felt like I was drunk  City lights lay out before us  And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder  I had a feeling that I belonged  I had a 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 checkout 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 we were driving driving in your car  The speed so fast felt like I was drunk  City lights lay out before us  And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder  I had a feeling that I belonged  I had a feeling I could be someone  be someone    be someone    You got fast car  And I 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 a better  Thought maybe together you and me would find it  I got no plans I ain't going nowhere  So take your fast car and keep on driving    So remember when we were driving driving in your car  The speed so fast felt like I was drunk  City lights lay out before us  And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder  I had a feeling that I belonged  I had a feeling I could be someone  be someone    be someone    You got a fast car  But is it fast enough so you can fly away  You gotta make a decision  You leave tonight or live and die this way    these lyrics are last corrected by Kirstin Mcbride
