Yeah, it's those Jersey boys
I heard a man say Jesus walks
Me, myself I heard Jesus talk
'Cause when I heard this beat I felt Jesus force
I heard it through the wire that he made it out the coma
From a fast car, it was a fast car, yeah
Every day is like the wild wild west
Some of us are Bad Boys, some of us are Outlawz
Unsolved mystery, the killer get away
L.A., Vegas at the end of the day
In a fast car, drivin' a fast car, yeah
You don't gotta be no billionaire
To get a ticket up to the moon

You need a helpin' hand, look up right here
To help you see clearly now, yeah
To help you see clearly now, yeah
I hope you see clearly now, yeah, oh yeah
What would you do after your bachelor party?
In the bar celebratin' with all your homies
Go outside and you ready to ride

Havin' fun in Central America

In that fast car yeah, ridin' that fast car, yeah

Crossin' the street she won't see 17
Blink of an eye, DWI

You will have no choice
You may hear the tires screamin'
But you will have no voice

You will weep and smile and see
Heaven in the headlights
Mile after mile, after mile, after mile
