Fast Car Lyrics

Fast car
I got a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Start from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me, myself I got nothing to lose

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
So I quit school and that's what I did

So remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast I 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
