Fast Car (feat. Dakota)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh

You got a fast car

I want a ticket to anywhere

Maybe we'll make a deal

Maybe together we can get somewhere

Any place is better

Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose

Maybe we'll make something

Me, myself, I got nothin' to prove

You got a fast car

I got a plan to get us out of here

I've been workin' at a convenience store

Managed to save just a little bit of money

We won't have to drive too far

Just across the border and into the city

You and I could both get jobs

And finally see what it means to be living

You got a fast car

Is it fast enough so we could fly away?

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car

You speed so fast, felt like I was drunk

City lights laid out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

I, I had a feelin' that I belonged

And I, I had a feelin' that I, could be someone

Had a feelin' that I, could be someone

See my old man's got a problem

Live with the bottle, that's the way it is

Said his body's too old for workin'

His body's too young to look like him

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

We go cruise and entertain ourselves

You still ain't got a job

And I work in a market as a check out girl

I know things will get better

You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter and

Buy a bigger house, yeah live in the suburbs

You got a fast car

Is it fast enough so you can fly away?

You gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we were drivin', drivin' in your car

You speed so fast felt like I was drunk

City lights laid out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

I, I had a feelin' that I belonged

And I, I had a feelin' that I could be someone

Had a feelin' that I could be someone

Be someone

Had a feelin' that I could be someone
