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, myself I've got nothing to prove

You've got a (2)________ car
I've got a plan to get us out of here
I (3)________ working at the convenience store
Managed to (4)________ just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive 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 with the bottle, that's the way it is
He (6)________ 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 (7)__________ give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I (8)________ 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 (9)________ a decision
We leave (10)______________ or live and die this way

I remember (11)________ we were driving
Driving in your car
The (12)__________ so fast I felt (13)________ 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 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 (14)________ in a market as a checkout girl
I (15)________ things will get better
You'll (16)________ work and I'll get promoted
We'll (17)________ out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

I remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
The speed so (18)________ I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arms felt nice (19)______________ (20)__________ 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 late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find 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 (21)________ I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone
Be someone, be someone

You've got a fast car
But is it (22)________ enough so you can fly away
You gotta (23)________ a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way

And die this way

And die this way

And die this way
