Fast Car by Tracy Chapman - Grammy performance 2024 with Luke Combs.
You got a fast carI want a ticket to anywhereMaybe we make a dealMaybe together we can get somewhereAny place is betterStarting from zero, got nothing to loseMaybe we'll make somethingMe, myself, I got nothing to prove
You got a fast carI got a plan to get us out of hereI been working at the convenience storeManaged to save just a little bit of moneyWon't have to drive too farJust 'cross the border and into the cityYou and I can both get jobsAnd finally see what it means to be living
See, my old man's got a problemHe lives with the bottle, that's the way it isHe says his body's too old for workingHis body's too young to look like hisMy mama went off and left himShe wanted more from life than he could giveI said, somebody's got to take care of himSo I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast carIs it fast enough so we can fly away?We gotta make a decisionLeave tonight or live and die this way
So I remember we were driving, driving in your carSpeed so fast, I felt like I was drunkCity lights lay out before usAnd your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulderAnd I-I, had a feeling that I belongedI-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
