1. I am a lineman for the county and I drive the main road, searchin' in the sun for another overload. I hear you singing in the wires, I can hear you through the whine, and the Wichita Lineman is still on the line. 2. 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. 3. (= verse 2, first 2 lines as instrumental : ) And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time. and the Wichita Lineman is still on the line. +
