I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the mainroad
Lookin' in the Sun for another overload
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
And I need you more than want you

And I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman
Is still on the line
