"Wichita Lineman" lyrics
"Wichita Lineman"
I am a lineman for the county.
And I drive the mainroad.
Lookin' in the sun for another overload.
[Chorus 1:]
I hear you singing in the wire.
I can hear you thru the whine.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.
I know I need a small vacation.
But it don't look like rain.
And if it snows that stretch down south,
won't ever stand the strain.
[Chorus 2:]
And I need you more than want you.
And I want you for all time.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.
[Repeat last chorus]
