Fast Car lyrics

Artist  : Xiu Xiu 
Song : Fast Car



 Send "Fast Car" Ringtone to your Cell 

 You got a fast car

I want a ticket to anywhere

Maybe we make a deal

Maybe together we can get somewhere



Anyplace is better

Starting from zero got nothing to lose

Maybe we'll make something

But me myself I got nothing to prove



You got a fast car

And I got a plan to get us out of here

I been working at East side`s health and
childrens centre

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



You see my old man's got a problem

He live with prescription drugs and 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 life and that's what I did



You got a fast car

But is it fast enough so we can fly away

We gotta make a decision

We leave tonight or live and die this way



remember we were driving driving in your car

speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped around my
shoulder

I had a feeling that I belonged

I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be
someone



You got a fast car

And we go cruising to entertain ourselves

You still dont have 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 big house and live in the suburbs



remember we were driving driving in your car

speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped around my
shoulder

I had a feeling that I belonged

I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be
someone



You got a fast car

And I got a job that 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

Thought maybe together you and me would find
it

I got no plans I ain't going nowhere

So take your fast car and keep on driving



remember we were driving driving in your car

speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped around my
shoulder

I had a feeling that I belonged

I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be
someone



You got a fast car

But is it fast enough so we can fly away

We gotta make a decision

We leave tonight or live and die this way
