Lyrics:

Walls are built up stone by stone
Fields divided one-by-one
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 but we're still a ways away'
But we're still a ways away

saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm
The power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get snagged
The bells are ringing through the town again
The children look up and 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, but we're still a ways away'

But it's still a ways away
But we're still a ways away
But it's still a ways away

Way to shield the hated heat
A way to put myself to sleep
A way to shield the hated heat
A way to put myself, my children to sleep

He piloted this song in a plane like that one
And she is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade
Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again
But fields of wheat is lookin' 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, but we're still a ways away'

But it's still a ways away
But we're still a ways away
But it's still a ways away
