Fast Car (Live) by Tracy Chapman

You've got a (1)________ car
I want 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, (2)____________ I've got nothing 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 (3)________ just a (4)____________ bit of money
We won't (5)________ to (6)__________ too far
Just cross the border and (7)________ 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 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 (8)________ him
She (9)____________ more (10)________ life (11)________ he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit (12)____________ and that's what I did

You've got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We (13)__________ (14)________ a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

I remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
The (15)__________ so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arms felt (16)________ wrapped (17)__________ my shoulder
And I had a (18)______________ that 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 (19)________ and I'll get promoted
We'll (20)________ out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

I (21)________________ when we were driving
Driving in your car
The speed so (22)________ I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arms (23)________ 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

You've got a fast car
And I've got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking (24)________ at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd (25)____________ hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would (26)________ it
I've got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

I remember when 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 arms felt nice wrapped round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I (27)__________ be someone
Be someone, be someone

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

And die this way

And die this way

And die this way
