Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the Goodtime Hour live recording of Glen Campbell performing his rendition of Jimmy Webb's ballad 'Wichita Lineman'

Here is background from the songwriter along with his performance
Jimmy Webb - Wichita Lineman

"Wichita Lineman" written by Jimmy L. Webb
Lyrics
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

[Instrumental Interlude]

And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line

[Instrumental to end]"

This song brings me back to high school and the first time I picked up a guitar, thanks for another memory.
