Fast Car Lyrics - Morning Orbit - David Usher

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 got nothing to prove 

You got a fast car 

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 

Won't have to drive too far 

Just across the border and into the city 

You and I could both get jobs 

Finally see what it means to be living 

See my old man, he's got a problem 

Lives with a bottle, that's the way it is 

He says his body's too old for working 

Body's too young for looking like his 

Mama went off and left him 

Wanted more from life than he could give 

I said, "Somebody's got to take care of him" 

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

You got a fast car 

Is it fast enough that we can fly away? 

We gotta make a decision 

Leave tonight or live and die this way 

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car 

Speed so fast felt like I was drunk 

City lights lay out before us 

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder 

And I had a feeling that I belonged 

Had a feeling I could be someone 

Be someone, be someone 

You got a fast car 

We go cruising, entertain ourselves 

You still ain't got a job 

And I work in a market in the checkout line 

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 

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car 

Speed so fast felt like I was drunk 

City lights lay out before us 

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder 

And I had a feeling that I belonged 

Had a feeling I could be someone 

Be someone, be someone 

You got a fast car 

I got a job, pays all our bills 

Stay out drinking late at the bar 

See more of your friends than you do of your kids 

I'd always hoped for better 

Thought we'd get together you and me would find it 

Got no plans, I ain't going nowhere 

Take your fast car and keep on driving 

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're driving, driving in your car 

Speed so fast felt like I was drunk 

City lights lay out before us 

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder 

And I had a feeling that I belonged 

I had a feeling I could be someone 

Be someone, be someone
