I am a lineman for the county
   And I walk the main road
   Searchin' in the sun for another overload
   I can hear you through 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 will never 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 the Wichita Lineman
   Is still on the line
