Lyrics
Wichita Lineman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
