Fast Car - Christian Kane.mp3

[00:21.40]You got a fast car
[00:23.74]And I want a ticket to anywhere
[00:26.12]Maybe we make a deal
[00:28.39]Maybe together we can get somewhere
[00:30.67]Anyplace is better
[00:32.81]Starting from zero got nothing to lose
[00:35.15]Maybe we'll make something
[00:37.38]But me myself I got nothing to prove
[00:40.53]
[00:48.69]You got a fast car
[00:51.05]And I got a plan to get us out of here
[00:53.31]I been working at the convenience store
[00:55.90]Managed to save just a little bit of money
[00:57.90]And we won't have to drive too far
[01:00.25]Just across the border and into the city
[01:02.47]You and I can both get jobs
[01:04.84]And finally see what it means to be living
[01:07.42]
[01:16.14]You see my old man's got a problem
[01:18.49]He live with the bottle that's the way it is
[01:20.64]He says his body's too old for working
[01:22.96]His body's too young to look like his
[01:25.38]My mama went off and left him
[01:27.60]She wanted more from life than he could give
[01:29.85]I said somebody's got to take care of him
[01:32.13]So I quit school and that's what I did
[01:34.84]
[01:43.79]You got a fast car
[01:45.84]But is it fast enough so we can fly away
[01:48.36]We gotta make a decision
[01:50.48]We leave tonight or live and die this way
[01:52.66]
[02:00.66]Cause I remember when we were driving driving in your car
[02:04.31]The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[02:06.52]And the city lights laid out before us
[02:08.71]And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
[02:11.18]And I had a feeling that I belonged
[02:15.62]And I had a feeling I could be someone,
[02:20.18]be someone, be someone
[02:22.49]
[02:31.47]You got a fast car
[02:34.14]And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
[02:36.20]You still ain't got a job
[02:38.38]And I work in a market as a checkout boy
[02:40.54]I know things will get better
[02:43.15]You'll find work and I'll get promoted
[02:45.49]We'll move out of this shelter
[02:47.61]Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
[02:50.61]
[02:57.85]And I remember when we were driving driving in your car
[03:01.27]The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[03:03.61]And the city lights laid out before us
[03:06.00]And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
[03:08.23]And I had a feeling that I belonged
[03:12.88]And I had a feeling I could be someone,
[03:17.56]be someone, be someone
[03:23.74]
[03:28.67]You got a fast car
[03:31.16]And I got a job that pays all our bills
[03:33.37]You stay out drinking late at the bar
[03:35.66]See more of your friends than you do of your kids
[03:37.93]I'd always hoped for better
[03:40.00]Thought maybe together me and you could find it
[03:42.51]I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
[03:44.85]So take your fast car and keep on driving
[03:48.14]
[03:54.91]I remember when we were driving driving in your car
[03:58.38]The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
[04:00.72]And the city lights laid out before us
[04:03.07]And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
[04:05.32]And I had a feeling that I belonged
[04:09.88]And I had a feeling I could be someone,
[04:14.37]be someone, be someone
[04:20.34]
[04:25.36]You got a fast car
[04:28.24]But is it fast enough so you can fly away
