Текст песни Fast Car - Black Pumas

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero, got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself, I've got nothing to prove, yeah

I just wanna be someone
Get somewhere, baby

And you got a fast car
I've got a plan, it'll get us out of here
Been working at the convenience store
I managed to save this little bit of money

And we don'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
Wanna be someone and get somewhere, don't 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 what he could give
I said, somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school, it's what I did

And you got a fast car
Is it fast enough, that we could fly away?
We gotta make a decision
To leave tonight or live and die this way
Live and die this way, yeah

Remember we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
And the city lights laid out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone
Be someone, get somewhere

You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work at the market as a checkout boy

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
Be someone, get somewhere baby

Remember we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
And the city lights laid out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder

And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be somebody, be someone

You got a fast car
You got a fast car
Yes, you got a fast car
I've got a job, pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do your kids

I'd always hoped for better
Maybe thought that you and me would find it
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
Be someone, get somewhere baby

So you got a fast car
But is it fast enough that we could fly away?
You gotta make a decision
To leave tonight or live and die this way

You wanna be someone and get somewhere

Remember we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
And the city lights laid out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone, yeah
