Bob Dylan called "Wichita Lineman" the greatest American song ever written, but I like Jimmy Webb's "Galveston" even better.

“Bob Dylan called “Wichita Lineman” the greatest ...”

Who woulda thought of writing a song about a lineman? By the way, they’re “lineworkers” now. Just like we have “firefighters” now, not “firemen”.
