[Verse 1]

You got a fast car

I want a ticket to anywhere

Maybe we'll a deal

Maybe together we can get somewhere

Any place is better

Starting from zero, got nothing to lose

Maybe we'll make something

'Cause me, myself, I got nothing to prove

Mm, hmm

[Verse 2]

You got a fast car and

I got a plan to get us outta here

I been working at a convenience store

Managed to save just a little bit of money

Won't have to drive too far

Just 'cross the border and into thе city

You and I can both get jobs

And find out what it means to be living

[Chorus]

See I rеmember when we were driving

Driving in your car

Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder

And I-I had a feeling that I belonged, yeah

I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone, ooh

[Verse 3]

I said my old man's got a problem

He lives for the bottle, that's the way it works

His body's too old for working

His body's too young to look like his

My momma went off and left him

She wanted more from life than he could give

I said "Somebody's gotta take care of him"

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

Oh, oh, that's what I did

[Chorus]

See I remember when we were driving

Driving in your car

Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder

And I-I had a feeling that I belonged

I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

Oh, yeah, oooooh

[Refrain]

I said you got a fast car

Is it fast enough so we can fly away?

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight, or we can die this way
