🎤 Lyrics: Luke Combs - Fast Car
[Verse]
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
Starting from zero, got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
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
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 lives with the bottle, that's the way it is
He said his body's too old for working
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse]
You got a fast car
We go cruising 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 and live in the suburbs
[Chorus]
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
[Verse]
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
Take your fast car and keep on driving
[Chorus]
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

We all can't get enough of Luke Combs' phenomenal cover of Tracy Chapman's iconic 1988 song ✨
*_Question:_*_ What was one of your favorite songs growing up?_
Lean On Me........Bridge Over Troubled Water
Silver wings ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I don't really see how it's phenomenal all he did was basically do it in the same style and even tried The Sandlot her and it just comes out as it kind of a generic we cover in my opinion and nothing special. He didn't bring his own flavor to it or arrange it differently or anything really just sounds like some guy sitting around at a party covering the song sorta. He didn't bring his own flavor to it or change anything up or even arrange a different or anyting. It's a decent straight up cover and like I said I like Luke Combs it's just nothing special and definitely not a great Recreation
All I can think of is Tracy Chapman's version that I had to look it up to hear it.
This came out my Senior year 1988
A good song has the ability to hit deep emotions . A great song combines this technique with a striking melody/vocals. The longing to leave a broken home life and fresh hope resonates strong. I appreciate Luke's talent. Excellent
Both Tracy and Luke sang this song so well.
Im glad he didnt change;
"So I work in the market as a checkout girl"
Thats so cool! This song is for everyone feeling down and it dont matter your color, sex or status.
No it sounds weird. If he sings the song in first person, it’s through his vantage point. He’s calling himself a “checkout girl” which sounds weird which an obviously male voice who isn’t transgender.
@@VigilanteVegan It's called sarcasm. He's singing it from a sense of irony. I totally get it.
I think the "checkout girl " line adds to his sense of feeling emasculated. "My dreams aren't going anywhere,I'm stuck I this small town, doing a job normally reserved for women- a checkout girl." It adds another dimension to the song. "Checkout boy" would've worked too, but the original line sung by a man makes it all the more powerful, to me.
@@missmiss6516 Exactly!
I thought that was cool too
Definitely one of the best covers I’ve ever heard. Country music always captures the emotions
This song has been one of my favorites my ENTIRE life, luke did the original well ❤
What a great cover. He treated the song with great respect and made a cover that I'm sure Tracy approves of. Amazing job. Oh and I too approve that he didn't alter the lyrics for gender. That is a sign of great respect to the writer. That is a tradition in folk music. Respect!
She actually digs it.
Rarely is a cover better that the original, but this one is.
Luke is incredible at making this song pop! I love this version. Best cover of this I have heard.
Bless all of your hearts that don't know the real Tracy Chapman real version
This is a dollar tree version
@@carolinew4770wrong, this one is better
Way better
Both are amazing ❤️music is universal
@@adame6425learn your music
This song is just great, no matter what version!
Tracy Chapman (the original singer and song writer of the song) cannot be beat
Fast Car is one of my favorites. Great cover!
MY FAVORITE SONGGGGGG
Love both versions
For God so loved the world he gave his one and only son so that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life -John 3:16. I love you all but God loves y’all more🙏🏼❤️✝️
People have no idea what this song is about, but at least it's a good tune.
Quite possibly the greatest cover ever
What I can respect, is this man sang this song as the song was writ by Tracy... don't transgender it up.
Transgender it up? You known Chapman is gay right?
Came here thinking I would hate it but I didn’t. Luke did a respectable job with this song
Jonas Blue - Fast Car is my favorite version of the song
This song make anyone else feel like kinda sad? Like u couldve done better in ur live and time is just slipping away? Wishing u did better?
Youll find work and ill get permoted and we'll move outta longview i know things will get better hope
I love Luke Combs and this is a great cover of the song! I gotta be honest, I liked the original by Tracy Chapman but I was too young to really pay much attention to the lyrics. The song is so much better when you actually know what the meaning behind it is. ❤
LOVE this song from 1988 and this version it still hits home in 2023
I-I HAD A FEELING I COULD BE SO ME ONE🖤👁🤍🌬🌈👻 The Mo Ye Feel, The Mo Real I Am~IC~InnerChild~ImmaculateConcept
Love this song ❤❤
Good job but NO ONE does it like Tracey!
Just listened and compared to this it's ass
It’s obvious the original is gonna be better 🤣🤦♂️
Agreeeeed
I won't have listen to this song since it is covered by the Luke comb❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤not agreed😢😢😢
One of the most beautiful and moving songs ever written. This is a beautiful cover - so wonderful the way he honors Tracy’s arrangement yet makes it his own.
Love this song
This was my childhood best friend and my favorite song to sing. She passed away 8 years ago and this took me right back ❤
Who passed away?
😥
Sorry to hear, what happened to her ??
@@dinolover6354 cardiac arrest
How is this your childhood friend and your favorite song if she died 8 years ago but this song hasn’t been out for even a year
I have always loved Tracy Chapman version, but Luke has done this song justice, not many singers can pull off a remake song like he just did. Love it.
yes ive never liked any of the other covers. this one stopped me in my tracks!
First time listener. Sorry but Tracy is unmatched. It's not even close. I don't get the hype. Tracy has emotion and pain and love in her voice that can't be recreated.
Agreed.
It’s boring. Unimaginative. Dreck.
Xiu Xiu did a fantastic version.
Agree! The emotion in her voice can't be recreated. Not sure why this version is getting so much love? Maybe many are hearing this song for the first time, which is a great thing!
@@jamespohl-md2eqA cash cow exact rip-off garbage!
@@unw0rthyprobably because people don't know who Tracy Chapman was and only know this version
Lol you sound very weird
I LOVE that he didn't change "girl"... love it love it love it. Keeping the original lyrics intact is 🤌
This song tears me up.
That's because he identifies as a girl and uses she/ her pronouns.... Where you been?
@@captainbc52😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only the best blues and traditional (country) folk musicians do it, so he is in very good company by honoring the song as written.
Luke sounds great singing Fast Car. This song suits him. I heard it on the radio, and it wasn't a country station. It's nice to hear Fast Car again, in 2023.
he has a good voice but no one sings like it like Chapman.
Sit down
He works at the market as a checkout girl... 😂
Listen to the original version
2023 liberal version
❤❤❤❤
Love ❤️ ⭐️💯🏆👍
Rarely I like a cover better or as good as the original but this one is two thumbs up! Well done!

It’s not a bad cover to be honest. It was a huge challenge to cover Tracy Chapman and make it sound country.
Not really. He literally changed nothing about the song, just sang it himself with his own voice. Where was the “challenge” exactly…?
Nothing like reliving a Tracy Chapman classic
Great song... full of poignancy, longing, hopes, resignation and sadness. I was skeptical that a male country artist could do it justice, but I really liked Luke's rendition.... it's respectful to Tracy, yet his own. Kudos for not changing the lyrics. No need, it's not a gender based song, it's about what people go through. I have Tracy's original recording.
Luke combs works as a checkout girl. Lol.
At least when Christian kane covered this he was a checkout boy
Infinitely faithful to the original song.
@@flynncook7989 or is he just identifying as female?
people calling this a cover doesnt know music luke combs wrote in 1961
No thank you Luke Combs.
Tracy will be proud.
Unbelievable song Luke you nailed it all day long
It’s a big NO for me. Thanks for trying.
Agreed. Nothing compares to Tracy
100 million streams. I couldn't make it 30 seconds into his version. I went to listen to Tracey chapman
I've loved this song since it came out. Tracy Chapman ❤. Luke does it well. I'm impressed. I love all music.
Hatted comment but i think is better.
Still one of the most iconic songs ever. Doesn’t matter Whoever sings this song it will always be endearing❤❤❤
Essa musica me leva num tempo muito bom que nunca mais voltará ❤
I dont like country and western generally.
But i do like this Cover.
This was well done.
It hits different........
YOU got a fast Car
This is an epic reconstruction of a classic. No wonder you were allowed to do this. 😊❤❤❤
Frigging incredible cover of an already-timeless tune.
Luke Combs can sing anything! Great song and an excellent cover in tribute!
This is the best cover i’ve ever heard
Great song. Love this version
Una buena canción, con una buena letra y una excelente interpretación. saludos desde Cuba.
Tracy Chapman original singer of this song and it was way better
@@ethanbarker1166 cada cual tiene su gusto. No dejo de reconocer que la canción originalmente era muy buena, pero con Luke no suena mal... y su interpretación es excelente , Yo no comparo, cada artista tiene su propio estilo y el de Luke a mi me encanta, como mismo lo hizo Tracy en su momento. Pero este momento es de LUKE!!!!!!!!
Both versions are amazing. Thanks
Keep your head’s up W2 Crew !! Trust Me Please no matter how bad it may or may not look!
I won’t let you down!!
I love your songs Luke Combs This song is my favorite and my second favorite song by you is Beautiful Crazy thank you for writing your songs because you are a good singer....
Not even Luke AND THIS IS NOT EVEN HIS SONG
Loved this song now another reason to like Luke even more 🤙🤙
Tracy Chapman version will always be better in my opinion. This sounds like karaoke compared to the original.
Forgot all about this until now with Luke bringing it back to life. My grandsons really love Luke. Thus this old rock and roller must adapt.
Absolutely beautiful song that I Absolutely love ❤️ 😍 thankyou 🥰 ❤️ 💕 💖
I wish he did something a little different. It's too close to the original for me to listen more than once.
It’s nowhere close to the original. It’s soulless.
@@CRHE I meant musically. Yeah I was trying to be nice.
@@CRHEGet over yourself. Tracy would be proud of this cover.
@@bsgfan1Oh no. Someone had an opinion different than yours.
Soulless
@@bsgfan1 Sensitive.
Justin Bieber did an amazing job covering this song as well.
Sounds like an early contestant American Idol version of this song.
Tracy Chapman is still the queen bee.
Never said she wasn't
Anyone who thinks this is better than the original is completely wack, this is so boring and flavorless.
Ice Spice could probably cover this song and still make me cry, though.
@@flynncook7989 Yea I agree the lyrics are extremely powerful, I just also think that nobody can deliver that song better than Tracy Chapman can.
Tracy’s version will always have my heart, but Luke did the cover pretty good.
I love both versions 💞
Country music and singers were not on top of my list, but this is already a classic in my books
As much as I love Tracy Chapman's original version, but this cover by Luke Combs hits me in a different level I didnt experience before. No wondet its a big hit, now at numbet 3 hopefully it will hit numbet one.
Why do country artists always feel the need to cover and destroy classic songs? I know modern country is stale as hell but Luke is a decent songwriter and can do better than this mess.
Hot take
In my best Greta voice: HOW DARE YOU!!
That musical hook sounds sort of zepplinish 3rd album
This cover is objectively better than the original. It's not even close lol.
Not at all 'bad' but what exactly does this add beyond sounding like very polished American Idol esque cover?! Lol Can't even say he makes it his own. Sounds like a white Maga redneck singing it exactly the way Tracy did. Just slightly harder drums etc...
Why didn't he change "work as a check out girl"?
Why didn't he at least change the word checkout girl to check out guy? Geez, ruined it. Or is he identifying as a she now? 🤣
Congratulations, you found the one tiny cloud in a bright blue sky. Life is tough
@@op8726 just saying. He could have changed the one word, it's done all the time.
Great job! What a deserving song to get a second act.
The cover is stuck on replay 🎧
This is definitely not a country song. Don't particularly care for it. Come on Luke combs. You are better than this.
I don’t even like country and I LOVE this song after hearing the Tracy Chapman version and noticing that he didn’t alter the lyrics at all.
He struggles with Tracy’s tempo. The original will always be the one. Nice attempt though.
Putting Luke Combs down while praising the original is disgusting
Not usually a fan of covers, but dang Luke NAILED IT!!!! Pretty sure he could sing the phonebook and make it sound good.
We need a duet from tracy and luke to shut up these morons about which ones better and which ones trash. He did this song justice and is letting a new generations ears hear a classic song while fans of tracys get to enjoy her song again. Its still her song hes not singing it as if its his. Hes shown nothin but respect for tracys original even goin as far as not changing the lyrics even tho hes a man and the arrangement is similar to tracys aswell
This is life fighting the good fight ALL MEN AND WOMEN.. ESPECIALLY MEN 💪
Great song ❤Love his version of this song best
Tract chapmans versions better but this isn’t bad.
I like this version so much better great job luke..this song came out in 88 by tracy chapman..
"" WOW "" I LOVE THIS SONG Luke❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why is this so goddamn good
They lyrics don't make any sense when a man sings it. A man can easily escape a situation like this by himself.
