D-DU-UDU
 I 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
And  I need you more than want  you,
 and I want you for all time
And  the Wichita Lineman,  is still on the line .  .  . . .
