Lyrics: Wyclef Jean. Fast Car.

:
(feat. Lupe Fiasco)

Yea
It's those jersey boys
Wyclef jerry wonder we gone take yall back to the book of basements
One time

[Wyclef]
I heard a man say Jesus walks
Me myself I heard Jesus talks
Cuz when I heard his beat I felt Jesus' voice
I heard it through the wire and he made it out the corner in a fast car
It was a fast car
Jerry wonder bring that beat back
Everyday is like the wild wild west
Some of us are bad boys and some of us are outlaws
assault miss the beat the killer gata way
L.A. vacates at the end of the day
in a fast car
driving fast car
(are u ready to ride?)

[chorus]
You don't gotta be no billionaire
To get a ticket up to the moon
We all know somebody up there
You need help an aunt look up right here
To help u see clearly now
To help u see clearly now
I hope u see clearly now

[Lupe]
Soon as they wave the chekit
Began to drive wreck less
I hope u have a wreck
But walk away deafless
And when they rush the car with the extinguishers
You rush into the crowd with your fingers up that ure okay.
That ure so saved
That ure so brave
Cuz u live your life with one foot
Your own grave
When ure defying death
That's when ure on stage
With a million on the dash
And a crowd hoping u crash
So with the devil dead
And ure prepared for this to be ure last
U ran out of gas

[chorus]
you don't gotta be no billionaire
to get a ticket up to the moon
we all know somebody up there
you need help an aunt look up right here
to help you see clearly now
to help you see clearly now
I hope you see clearly now

[Wyclef]
Come follow me, come follow me, come follow me, come follow me
I see two kids in the alley
Their ski mask with their shotty
One says u ride shotgun
We hit the liquor store
We get the cash
And then we take off in a fast car
Yes they got the dough
That's when I heard the shots blast
They try to speed it up
But the hearse don't move fast

[chorus]
you don't gotta be no billionaire
to get a ticket up to the moon
we all know somebody up there
you need help an aunt 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

Are u ready to ride!

you don't gotta be no billionaire (oh)
to get a ticket up to the moon (oohh)
we all know somebody up there (wooah)
you need help an aunt look up right here (ohh)
to help you see clearly now, (Yeah)
to help you see clearly now, (Yeah)
I hope you see clearly now, (Yeah)

Are you ready to ride

[Wyclef]
Just ride everybody just ride
Just push on the pedal and slide
And if u feel what I'm feeling
And u live in the club then u gotta let somebody else drive now
Just ride everybody just ride now
If you need a club that can fly with the ride now
Now all the fellas in the place man
Easy on the waist man we just tryna have good time now
Ooo
Oh ohh
Woo oahh ooohhhh
(yeah) x2
Are you ready to ride
