Sometimes the bad guys go right on top
Sometimes the good guys lose
We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds

Sometimes the bad days may take their grip
Sometimes the good days fade
But the rain today hurts the head to drink

But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The harder the we go
The longer we climb

'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause it's been fun

I heard you called me
From far away, far like the king Tut
Having the voice to make it right
So I just cry

I fell to stay good
So been away
Before I could even see
Tried once more
Lost my ??? and we're gone
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The longer it takes
The looser the times

'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause this ain't the road

But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The stronger ???
The faster ???

'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road

    I always thought it was

    Because this is it for all we know

    Instead of Because this isn't the road we know

Fast Car
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.
