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 . . . . .
