Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car" is one of those songs that you just feel in your soul: the lyrics about the yearning to escape, the gentle guitar underlying a feeling of despair but also the hope that
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 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 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 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 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 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 work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a big house and live in the suburbs 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 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 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 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 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 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 But is it fast enough so you can fly away You gotta make a decision You leave tonight or live and die this way

You got a fast car, I wanna ticket to anywhere, Maybe we can make a deal, Maybe together we can get somewhere, Any place is better, Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose, Maybe we'll make somethin', Me myself I've got nothin' to prove. You got a fast car, I got a plan to get us outta here, Been working at a convenience store, 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 livin'. See, my old man's got a problem, He live with the bottle, that's the way it is He say his body's too old for workin', 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 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, Is it fast enough so we can fly away? We gotta make a decision, We leave tonight or live an' die this way. CHORUS 'cause I remember when we were drivin', Drivin' in your car, Speeds so fast I felt like I was drunk, City lights lay out before us, And your arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder, And I, I had a feelin' that I belonged, And I, I had a feelin' I could be someone, Be someone, Be someone. You got a fast car, We go cruisin', entertain ourselves, You still ain't got a job, Now I work in the market as a checkout girl, I know things'll get better, You'll find work and I'll get promoted, And we'll move out of the shelter, Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs. CHORUS You got a fast car, I got a job that pays all our bills, You stay out drinkin' 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'd find it, I got no plans, I ain't goin' nowhere, So take your fast car and keep on drivin'. CHORUS You got a fast car, Is it fast enough, so you can fly away? You gotta make a decision, You leave tonight or live and die this way.

Du hast ein schnelles Auto Ich will ein Ticket nach irgendwo Vielleicht kriegen wir es hin Vielleicht können wir zusammen irgendwo hinkommenJeder Ort ist besser Ich begann von null und habe nichts zu verlieren Vielleicht drehen wir irgendwas Aber ich selbst habe mir nichts zu beweisenDu hast ein schnelles Auto Ich habe einen Plan, wie wir hier rauskommen Ich habe im Kaufhaus gearbeitet Und es geschafft, ein wenig Geld zu sparen Wir müssen nicht sehr weit fahren Nur über die Grenze und in die Stadt Du und ich, wir können beide Arbeit finden Und schließlich wissen, was es heißt, zu lebenWeißt Du, mein Alter hat ein Problem Er hängt an der Flasche, so ist es nunmal Er sagt, sein Körper ist zu alt zum Arbeiten Ich sage, sein Körper ist zu jung, um so auszusehen Meine Mama haute ab und verließ ihn Sie wollte mehr vom Leben, als er geben konnte Ich sagte, jemand muss sich um ihn kümmern Also schmiss ich die Schule, so war dasDu hast ein schnelles Auto Ist es schnell genug, damit wir wegfliegen können Wir müssen eine Entscheidung fällen Wir gehen heute Nacht, oder wir leben und sterben weiter soIch erinnere mich daran, dass wir in Deinem Auto fuhren So schnell, dass ich mich fühlte, als ob ich betrunken wäre Die Lichter der Stadt lagen vor uns Und Dein Arm um meiner Schulter fühlte sich gut an Und ich hatte das Gefühl, dazuzugehören Und ich hatte das Gefühl, jemand sein zu können, sein zu könnnen, sein zu könnenDu hast ein schnelles Auto Wie kreuzen herum um uns zu amüsieren Du hast immer noch keine Arbeit Und ich arbeite im Supermarkt als Kassiererin Ich weiß, es wird besser werden Du wirst Arbeit finden und ich werde befördert Wir werden aus diesem Loch ausziehen Ein größeres Haus kaufen und in der Vorstadt lebenIch erinnere mich daran, dass wir in Deinem Auto fuhren So schnell, dass ich mich fühlte, als ob ich betrunken wäre Die Lichter der Stadt lagen vor uns Und Dein Arm um meiner Schulter fühlte sich gut an Und ich hatte das Gefühl, dazuzugehören Und ich hatte das Gefühl, jemand sein zu können, sein zu könnnen, sein zu könnenDu hast ein schnelles Auto Ich habe einen Job, der all unsere Rechnungen bezahlt Du bleibst lange zum Trinken in der Bar Siehst mehr von Deinen Freunden als von Deinen Kindern Ich hatte immer besseres erhofft Dachte, vielleicht würden wir es zusammen schaffen Ich habe keine Pläne, ich gehe nirgendwo hin Also nimm Dein schnelles Auto und fahr weiterIch erinnere mich daran, dass wir in Deinem Auto fuhren So schnell, dass ich mich fühlte, als ob ich betrunken wäre Die Lichter der Stadt lagen vor uns Und Dein Arm um meiner Schulter fühlte sich gut an Und ich hatte das Gefühl, dazuzugehören Und ich hatte das Gefühl, jemand sein zu können, sein zu könnnen, sein zu könnenDu hast ein schnelles Auto Ist es schnell genug, damit du wegfliegen kannst Du mußt eine Entscheidung fällen Du gehst heute Nacht, oder lebst und stirbst weiter so
