Driver 8 by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
The walls are 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
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"
I saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm.
The 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, but we're still a ways away"
Way to shield the hated heat.
Way to put myself to sleep.
Way to shield the hated heat.
Way to put myself, my children to sleep.
He piloted this song in a plane like that one.
She is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade.
Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again.
Field to weed 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"

Driver 8 (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Las paredes se construyen, piedra a piedra;
los campos divididos uno por uno.
Y el conductor del tren dice,
"Tómate un descanso Maquinista 8, Maquinista 8 tómate un descanso
hemos estado en este turno demasiado tiempo"
Y el conductor del tren dice,
"Tómate un descanso Maquinista 8, Maquinista 8 tómate un descanso
Podemos llegar a nuestro destino, pero aún estamos lejos"
Vi una casa en el árbol en las afueras de la granja.
Los cables de alta tensión tienen flotadores para que los aviones no se enganchen.
Las campanas suenan por el pueblo de nuevo,
Los niños miran hacia arriba, todo lo que oyen es azul cielo, campanas sonando
Y el conductor del tren dice
"Tómate un descanso Maquinista 8, Maquinista 8 tómate un descanso
Podemos llegar a nuestro destino, pero aún estamos lejos"
Manera de protegerse del calor odiado.
Manera de dormirme.
Manera de protegerse del calor odiado.
Manera de dormirme, de dormir a mis hijos.
Él pilotó esta canción en un avión como ese.
Ella está vendiendo fe en la cruzada Go Tell.
Locomotora 8, Southern Crescent, oye las campanas sonar de nuevo.
El campo a desmalezar se ve ralo
Y el conductor del tren dice
"Tómate un descanso Maquinista 8, Maquinista 8 tómate un descanso
Hemos estado en este turno demasiado tiempo."
Y el conductor del tren dice,
"Tómate un descanso Maquinista 8, Maquinista 8 tómate un descanso.
Podemos llegar a nuestro destino, pero aún estamos lejos"
