Standard (EADGBE)

 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 . . . . .
