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

i know that Wichita Lineman is a song by Glen Campbell... but i watched Walk The Line finally and felt this song all over my coolness.

researching more Cash history... i learned that John R. Cash loved Glen and recorded this fave song during his Rick Rubin sessions in the 90's. (it's on the UNEARTHED demos box set)

so i hit H8 on the Seeburg...and have played Wichita Lineman about 20 times in a row this afternoon.

lost in the woods north of Nashville, Cash collapses and passes out with feelings of amphetamine lust and love for June Carter. AP Carter comes to him and tells him the homestead is near.

we are all near the homestead.
