Lyrics Fast Car - Jem

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we
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 got nothing to prove You got a fast car And I got a plan to get us
Out of here I've been working 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 can both get jobs And finally
See what it means to be living [Pre-Chorus] You
Got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision We leave tonight or live and die this way
So I remember we were driving,
Driving in your car The speed so fast,
I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm
Felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I,
I had a feeling that I belonged And I,
I had a feeling that I could be
Someone Had a feeling that I could be someone
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 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 You got a fast car And we go cruising to entertain ourselves You
Still ain't got a job And I work in a market as a checkout girl I
Know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the
Suburbs [Pre-Chorus] You got a fast
Car Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision We leave tonight or live and die this way
So I remember we were driving,
Driving in your car The speed so fast,
I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm
Felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I,
I had a feeling that I belonged And I,
I had a feeling that I could be
Someone Had a feeling that I could be someone
