Wichita Lineman

(Album: Under The Covers - 1997)

I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searching in the sun
For another overload
I hear you singing 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

[Instrumental]

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman
Is still on the line

Is still on the line

Still on the line

And the Wichita lineman
Is still on the line, that's right

Still on the line...
