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

Galveston, Wichita Lineman, MacArthur Park....all certainly different than most Top 40 songs.
