The Lineman Songtext
Well I'm off to work
Before the sun comes up.
I got everything
In the back of my truck.
I'm gonna do my job
Rain, sleet, or snow.
If you're askin if I'm a mail man
I'mma tellin' you hell no
CHORUS:
Cause I'm a Lineman
I make my living climbin' up them poles
If I'm in town I'm probably underground
with mud up to my nose
Yeah some girls call me crazy,
But my baby says I'm fun
Cause when the lights go out a lineman
I'll git er done
Well I wear a hard hat
a belt full of tools
I've got a headache right,
where the wires spool.
I've got a pocketknife,
I got my hooks and boots.
If you think you can do my job
Well come on and go to school
Chorus:
Cause I'm a Lineman
I make my living climbin' up them poles
If I'm in town I'm probably underground
with mud up to my nose
Yeah some girls call me crazy,
But my baby says I'm fun
Cause when the lights go out a lineman
Yeah,
I'll git er done
Chorus: (repeat)
Cause I'm a Lineman
I make my living climbin' up them poles
If I'm in town I'm probably underground
with mud up to my nose
Yeah some girls call me crazy,
But my baby says I'm fun
Cause when the lights go out a lineman
I'll git er done
Yeah I'll git er done
(Up the pole or down the road, boys)
Hey!
Hey!
Before the sun comes up.
I got everything
In the back of my truck.
I'm gonna do my job
Rain, sleet, or snow.
If you're askin if I'm a mail man
I'mma tellin' you hell no
CHORUS:
Cause I'm a Lineman
I make my living climbin' up them poles
If I'm in town I'm probably underground
with mud up to my nose
Yeah some girls call me crazy,
But my baby says I'm fun
Cause when the lights go out a lineman
I'll git er done
Well I wear a hard hat
a belt full of tools
I've got a headache right,
where the wires spool.
I've got a pocketknife,
I got my hooks and boots.
If you think you can do my job
Well come on and go to school
Chorus:
Cause I'm a Lineman
I make my living climbin' up them poles
If I'm in town I'm probably underground
with mud up to my nose
Yeah some girls call me crazy,
But my baby says I'm fun
Cause when the lights go out a lineman
Yeah,

Chorus: (repeat)
Cause I'm a Lineman

Hey!
