Wichita Lineman / By The Time I Get To Phoenix

(альбом: Love Is Blue - 1969)

Wichita
Wichita

I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searching in the sun for another overload
Wichita

I hear you singing in the wire (Wire)
I can hear you through the whine
Wichita lineman
Is still on the line
Oh, Wichita

I know I need a small vacation
But it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Will never be the same
Oh, Wichita, Wichita

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
Wichita lineman
Is still on the line (Wichita)
Oh, Wichita (Lineman)

By the time I get to Phoenix
She'll be rising
She'll find the note
I left hanging on her door
She'll laugh, when she reads the part
That says I'm leaving
Cause I've left that girl
So many times before

I know I need a small vacation
But it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Will never be the same
Oh, Wichita

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