Lyrics
The walls were built up Stone by stone The fields divided one by one And the train conductor says "Take a break, Driver 8 Driver 8, take a break You've been on this shift too long" And the train conductor says "Take a break, Driver 8 Driver 8, take a break We can reach our destination" Still a ways away I saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the barn Power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get snagged Bells are ringing through the town again Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue bells ringing And the train conductor says "Take a break, Driver 8 Driver 8, take a break We can reach our destination" Still a ways away (But it's still a ways away) But it's still a ways away (But it's still a ways away) A way to shield away the heat A way to put myself to sleep A way to shield away the hated heat A way to put myself, my children to sleep Piloted this song in a plane like that one She's selling faith on the Go Tell crusade Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again The fields to weed is looking thin And the train conductor says "Take a break, Driver 8 Driver 8, take a break We've been on this shift too long" And the train conductor says "Take a break, Driver 8 Driver 8, take a break We can reach our destination" Still a ways away But it's still a ways away (But it's still a ways away)
