[Fm] [C] I am a lineman [Bb] for the county,
[E] [Am] and I drive [Gm] the main road,

And with the tall [D]
line, boy, yes, he's still [Am] on [Bb] the line.

[Dm] And if it's no [Am] stretch to the south,
[G] we'll both stand the [D] strain.
And I need you more than [C] I want you, babe.
And I want you for [G] all time.
