You got a fast car
I need a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can go somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we can make something
Me and myself got nothing to prove

See, my old man's got a problem
He drinks from the bottle, that's the way it is
And his body's too old for working
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
Somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school, that's what I did

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough? We can fly away
Yeah, we gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or die this way

You see, we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
Your arms wrapped around my shoulders
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling that I could go and be someone, be someone
Maybe I'm gonna be someone, someday
(Be someone, be someone)
(Be someone, be someone)

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough? We can fly away
Yeah, we gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or die this way
