Fast car Tracy Chapman
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we’ll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working [at the convenience store]
—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—
Questions:
what kind of covenience store do you have in the u.s.a? How much can you get the pay?
—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—
Managed to save 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 what it means to be living
You see my old man’s got a problem
He live with the bottle that’s the way it is
-—-
what is that bottle for?
—--
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
-—-—
here, went off means run away from him?
-—-—
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody’s got to take care of him
So I quit school and that’s what I did
You 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 we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
—--
what is ‘lay out’
-—-
And your arm 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 got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
—-—-
go crusing means driving for fun?
—-—-—
You still ain’t got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
-—-—-
what is a chectout girl? is she a casher?
—-—-
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 live in the suburbs
You got a fast car
And I 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
—-—-—-—--
what does above line means?
-—-—-—-—--
I’d always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain’t going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way
thanks a lot!!
I will explain this song who doesn’t know at all
i hope you guys help me out
have fun
