Wichita Lineman Jimmy Webb, Glen Campbell (#3 in 1969), REM

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 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
Don’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
