Johnny cash wichita lineman lyrics

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 

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
