And he drives the main road
Searching in the sun for another overload
I hear him singing in the wire
I can hear him through the whine
But my Wichita lineman is still on the line
I know he needs a short vacation but it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Will never stand the strain
I know I need him more than want him
And I want him for all time
But my Wichita lineman is still on the line
Still on the line
I know he needs a short vacation but it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Will never stand the strain
I know I need him more than want him
And I want him for all time
But my Wichita lineman is still on the line
Still on the line, still on the line
And there's a lineman for the county And he drives the main road Searching in the sun for another overload I hear him singing in the wire I can hear him through the whine But my Wichita lineman is still on the line I know he needs a short vacation but it don't look like rain And if it snows that stretch down south Will never stand the strain I know I need him more than want him And I want him for all time But my Wichita lineman is still on the line Still on the line I know he needs a short vacation but it don't look like rain And if it snows that stretch down south Will never stand the strain I know I need him more than want him And I want him for all time But my Wichita lineman is still on the line Still on the line, still on the line Explain Request ×
