You've got a fast car I wanna a ticket to anywhere Maybe we can 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've got nothing to prove You've got a fast car I've got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store I 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 Finally see what it means to be living. You've got a fast car But 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 Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulders And I,E,I had the feeling that I belonged And I,E,I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone 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 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 Speeded so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulders And I,E,I had the feeling that I belonged And I,E,I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You've got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way
