Fast Car
Tracy L. Chapman
You got a fast car
And I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me, myself, I got nothin' to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
Been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Won't have to drive too far
Just across the border and into the city
And you and I can both get jobs
Finally see what it means to be living
See, my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
He said his body's too old for workin'
His body's too young to look like his
So 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?
Still gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
We go cruisin' to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
So I work in the market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
And we'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
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 your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me'd find it
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
Take your fast car and keep on driving
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Still gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
You got a fast car
Tu as une voiture rapide
And I want a ticket to anywhere
Et je veux un ticket vers n'importe où
Maybe we make a deal
Peut-être que nous pouvons trouver un accord
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Peut-être qu'ensemble on pourrait aller quelque part
Any place is better
N'importe où c'est mieux qu'ici
Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose
Repartir à zéro, rien à perdre
Maybe we'll make something
Peut-être qu'on fera quelque chose
Me, myself, I got nothin' to prove
Moi, moi-même, je n'ai rien à prouver
You got a fast car
Tu as une voiture rapide
And I got a plan to get us out of here
Et j'ai un plan pour qu'on parte d'ici
Been working at the convenience store
J'ai travaillé à l'épicerie
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Me suis débrouillé pour économiser un peu d'argent
Won't have to drive too far
On aura pas à rouler trop loin
Just across the border and into the city
Juste traverser la frontière et aller dans la ville
And you and I can both get jobs
Et toi et moi, on pourrait trouver des petits boulots
Finally see what it means to be living
Voir enfin ce que vivre veut dire
See, my old man's got a problem
Tu vois, mon vieux a un problème
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
Il vit avec la bouteille, il est comme ça
He said his body's too old for workin'
Il dit que son corps est trop vieux pour travailler
His body's too young to look like his
Son corps est trop jeune pour ressembler à ça
So mama went off and left him
Alors maman est partie et l'a quitté
She wanted more from life than he could give
Elle voulait plus qu'il ne pouvait lui donner
I said, somebody's got to take care of him
J'ai dit, quelqu'un doit prendre soin de lui
So I quit school and that's what I did
Alors j'ai quitté l'école et c'est ce que j'ai fait
You got a fast car
Tu as une voiture rapide
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Est-ce assez rapide pour que nous nous envolions?
Still gotta make a decision
Je dois toujours prendre une décision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
Partir ce soir ou vivre et mourir de cette façon
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Alors je me souviens quand on roulait, roulait dans ta voiture
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
Ça va tellement vite, j'avais l'impression d'être ivre
City lights lay out before us
Les lumières de la ville se couchent devant nous
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
Et ton bras sur mes épaules me faisait me sentir bien
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
Et j'-j'avais l'impression que là était ma place
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
J'-j'avais l'impression que je pouvais être quelqu'un, être quelqu'un, être quelqu'un
You got a fast car
Tu as une voiture rapide
We go cruisin' to entertain ourselves

I know things will get better
Je sais que les choses vont s'améliorer
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
Tu trouveras un job et je serais promu
And we'll move out of the shelter
Et on déménagera de cet abris
Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs
On achètera une plus grande maison, on habitera en banlieue
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Alors je me souviens quand on roulait, roulait dans ta voiture

Prend ta caisse et continue de rouler

俺はどこにでも行けるチケットが欲しい
Maybe we make a deal
きっと俺たちは取引をして
Maybe together we can get somewhere
一緒にどこかに行けるかも
Any place is better
ここ以外ならどこでもいい
Startin' from zero, got nothin' to lose
ゼロから始めて、失うものは何もない
Maybe we'll make something
もしかしたら何かを作り上げるかも
Me, myself, I got nothin' to prove
俺、俺自身、なにも証明するものはない
You got a fast car
君は速い車を手に入れた
And I got a plan to get us out of here
俺にはここから出る計画がある
Been working at the convenience store
俺はコンビニで働いてきた
Managed to save just a little bit of money
何とか少しの金を貯めてきた
Won't have to drive too far
あまりにも速く運転する必要はない
Just across the border and into the city
ただ国境の向こうの街に
And you and I can both get jobs
君と俺は二人とも職を手にする
Finally see what it means to be living
やっと生きる意味を知る
See, my old man's got a problem
ほら、俺の親父は問題を抱えている
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
彼は酒に溺れて、世の中そんなもんよ
He said his body's too old for workin'
年を取り過ぎて働けないと彼は言う
His body's too young to look like his
そんな風に見えないほど若く見えるけど
So mama went off and left him
だから母親は彼を捨てた
She wanted more from life than he could give
彼女は彼が与える人生よりもっと良いものが欲しかった
I said, somebody's got to take care of him
誰か彼の世話をしないとな、と俺は言った
So I quit school and that's what I did
だから俺は学校をやめた、そうしたんだ
You got a fast car
君は速い車を手に入れた
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
それは飛べるほど早いのか?
Still gotta make a decision
まだ決断をしないと
Leave tonight or live and die this way
今夜出立するか、このまま生活して死ぬか
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
だから俺たちがドライブしていた時、君の車でドライブしていたのを覚えている
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
あまりにもスピードを出して、酔ったみたいに感じた
City lights lay out before us
街の街灯は俺たちの前に広がっている
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
君の腕が俺の肩に絡みついて気分が良かった
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
俺がそこに居るべきだと感じた
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
俺は他の誰かになれると感じた、他の誰かになれると、他の誰かになれると
You got a fast car
君は速い車を手に入れた
We go cruisin' to entertain ourselves
俺たちはドライブをして楽しんだ
You still ain't got a job
君はまだ職を手にしてない
So I work in the market as a checkout girl
俺はマーケットのレジで働く
I know things will get better
全て上手くいくのだと分かってる
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
君が仕事を見つけて、俺は昇進して
And we'll move out of the shelter
俺たちはシェルターから引っ越す
Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs
大きな家を買って、郊外で暮らす
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
だから俺たちがドライブしていた時、君の車でドライブしていたのを覚えている
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk

俺は他の誰かになれると感じた、他の誰かになれると、他の誰かになれると
You got a fast car
君は速い車を手に入れた
I got a job that pays all our bills
請求書を支払えるぐらいの仕事を手に入れた
You stay out drinking late at the bar
君は遊びに出かけて、バーで遅くまで酒を飲んでいた
See more of your friends than you do your kids
子供に会うよりも、君は友達と時間を過ごす
I'd always hoped for better
俺はいつも良くなるよう祈っていた
Thought maybe together you and me'd find it
多分一緒に、君と俺は見つけると思った
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
俺に計画なんてない、どこにも行かない
Take your fast car and keep on driving
君の速い車に乗って、ドライブし続ける
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
だから俺たちがドライブしていた時、君の車でドライブしていたのを覚えている
