I am a lineman for the county

And I drive the main road

Searchin' in the sun for another overload

I hear you singin' in the wire

I can hear you through 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

And I need you more than want you

And I want you for all time

And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line

And I need you more than want you

And I want you for all time

And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
