By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin' Cause I've left that girl so many times before By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin' Off the wall that's all By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin She'll turn softly and call my name out loud And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her Tho' time and time I try to tell her so She just didn't know I would really go. |

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 |

You're still the best per-erson
I ever knew There were a thousand little things that I was always Just about to say to you But the now time, it grows shorter For the speeches Just let me leave you with the line It might help you pass the time Someti-ime You might as we-ell smile Ain't no tears gonna drown the rain Keeps on fallin' You might as we-ell smile Ain't no pain gonna change what still remai-ains You might as well regain, babe You're lost serenity, serenity And shine it on me Shine it on me-ee-ee I remember times when you he-eld me You'd free-eeze my spine We were lookin' in the mirror at the time I got confused and I thought your eyes were mine But now the time, it grows shorter For the secrets Just let me leave you with some truth Might help you hold on To your jewels sometimes You might as we-ell smile Ain't no tears gonna drown the rain Keeps on fallin' You might as we-ell smile Ain't no pain gonna change what still remai-ains You might as well maintain, babe Protect your sanity, your sanity-why And it shine it on me Shine it on me-ee-ee Shine it on me-ee-ee-ee Shine it o-on me... |

Just another day
And I think I'll die before it ends It's just another day And I sure like to go see my baby again Time was when I did not know What they meant when they said a man was blue But now I know because of you What I know because of you Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' I could be with you again Right now, right now Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' I could be with you again Somehow, somehow Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' now Just another day There ain't nothin' going down Nothin' going down I already know 'Cause I already called around I am worse, when I did not know Just what they meant when they said a day went wrong But now I know it's been too long Since I knew it had been too long Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' I could be with you again Right now, right now Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' I could be with you again Somehow, somehow Sweet darlin' I am just wishin' now |

Deep down inside I know I still lo-ove her
But she'll never know 'cause I'll never tell Or confide that I'm thinkin' o-of her And wishing her well I can't walk up to her and say to her Baby, just what you been do-oing I still love you like I did You-ou know that nothing's really changed But bein' the way I am I keep it hid Now lately I've seen the look in her-er eyes That just breaks my heart 'Cause she-e needs me so Just to lean on right at this moment Oh why can't I go up to that old love of mine and say Baby, just what you been do-oing I still love you like I did You-ou know that nothin's really changed But bein' the way I am I keep it hid Now maybe some day I'll throw off my foolish pride 'Cause this ain't no good Watching her dying this way 'Cause she's the same girl inside But why can't I go up to that old love of mine and say Baby, just what you been do-oing I still love you like I did You-ou know that nothin's really changed But bein' the way I am I just keep it... |
