"Station Man" is a song by British rock group Fleetwood Mac, which was released as the second track from their 1970 Kiln House album. The song is credited to Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer, and John McVie, although Spencer said in a 2010 interview that Christine McVie was more responsible for the song than John McVie. Kirwan, Christine McVie, and Spencer wrote the song's lyrics at the band's communal house in the English countryside, where Kirwan also developed the song's arrangement.

"Station Man" was sung as a duet between Kirwan and Christine McVie, who at the time of the recording had yet to officially join Fleetwood Mac due to contractual reasons. The song features an extended fade-in, slide guitar playing by Spencer, and conga overdubs from Mick Fleetwood. In 1971, it was issued as the B-side to "Jewel Eyed Judy, another song from the Kiln House album. "Station Man" was included in the band's setlist until 1977, several years after the departure of Kirwan and Spencer. Footage from a rehearsal was included in the Black, White and Blues documentary released in 1971 and directed by Revel Guest.
