- Wichita Lineman Lyrics / with translationsI 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
[Instrumental Interlude]
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all
time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental to end]
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
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all
time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental Interlude]
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all
time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental to end]
