Fast Car (Live) by Tracy Chapman

You've got a fast car
I (1)________ a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero we've got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me, myself I've got (2)______________ to prove

You've got a fast car
I've got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't (3)________ to (4)__________ too far
Just cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see (5)________ it means to be living

You see my old man's got a problem
He lives (6)________ 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 (7)________ care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did

You've 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

I remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
The speed so fast I (8)________ like I was drunk
City (9)____________ lay out before us
And your arms felt nice wrapped (10)__________ my shoulder
And I had a feeling (11)________ I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

You've 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 big house and (12)________ in the suburbs

I remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
The (13)__________ so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And (14)________ arms felt nice wrapped (15)__________ my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a (16)______________ I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

You've got a fast car
And I've got a job that (17)________ all our bills
You (18)________ out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of (19)________ kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe (20)________________ you and me would (21)________ it
I've got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your (22)________ car and (23)________ on driving

I (24)________________ when we were driving
Driving in your car
The (25)__________ so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out (26)____________ us
And your arms felt nice wrapped (27)__________ my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

You've got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta (28)________ a decision
You (29)__________ tonight or live and die (30)________ way

And die this way

And die this way

And die this way
