Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit - Driver 8 lyrics
[Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit - Driver 8 lyrics]
The 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 (Driver 8)
"Take a break, Driver 8 (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 ringin' through the town again
The children look up
But all they hear is sky-blue bells ringin'
And the train conductor says (Driver 8)
"Take a break, Driver 8 (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"
A 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 and 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
And the fields of wheat is lookin' thin
And the train conductor says (Driver 8)
"Take a break, Driver 8 (Driver 8)
Driver 8, take a break
We've been on this shift too long"
And the train conductor says (Driver 8)
"Take a break, Driver 8 (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"
