I am the lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searchin' in the sun for another overload
I hear you singin' in the wires
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'll want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman is still on the line
[ guitar ]
And I need you more than want you
And I'll want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman is still on the line
