I'm an old pipeliner, I lay my line all day
I'm an old pipeliner, I lay my line all day
I got four or five women waiting to draw my pay

I lay my line until the sun goes down
I lay my line until the sun goes down
Home to my woman, the meanest gal in town

When you see me coming, raise your window high
When you see me coming, raise your window high
See me leaving, hang your head and cry

You never miss your water until the well runs dry
You never miss your water until the well runs dry
You never miss your baby until she says goodbye
