The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Quisiera volver a sentir
lo que vivimos ayer
desnudando tu piel
why sentir tu vida en mi estremecer
tu cuerpo besar
las horas tienen que seguir
Amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
verte pasar
why fingir no verte sin sospechar
why trabajar
esperando el momento
de hacerte vibrar
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
juego de amor
sentir con miedo why no poder jamas huir
juego de amor
vivr en ti callando siempre el fuego
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
lo que vivimos ayer
desnudando tu piel
why sentir tu vida en mi estremecer
tu cuerpo besar
las horas tienen que seguir
Amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
verte pasar
why fingir no verte sin sospechar
why trabajar
esperando el momento
de hacerte vibrar
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
juego de amor
sentir con miedo why no poder jamas huir
juego de amor
vivr en ti callando siempre el fuego
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a
amarte asi solo why sin ti
estando presos, lejos why aqui
pa pa reo, pa pa uereo
pa pa re i a e a

Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
