Eddy Arnold

Richard Edward "Eddy" Arnold (May 15, 1918 – May 8, 2008) was an American country music singer who performed for six decades. He was a so-called Nashville sound (country/popular music) innovator of the late 1950s, and scored 147 songs on the Billboard country music charts, second only to George Jones. He sold more than 85 million records. A member of the Grand Ole Opry (beginning 1943) and the Country Music Hall of Fame (beginning 1966), Arnold ranked 22nd on Country Music Television's 2003 list of "The 40 Greatest Men of Country Music."

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 wires
I can hear you through the whine
And the Wichita lineman
Well, he's still on the line

I know I need a small vacation
But it don't look like rain
If it snows that stretch down south
Won't ever stand the same, no

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman
Well, he's still on the line

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman
He's still on the line

Still on the line, still on the line
He's still on the line, he's still on the line
The lineman, still on the line
He's still on the line, still on the line
