In this paper, the authors discuss Ward identities in five-dimensional Abelian Chern-Simons theory. Using the Ward identities the authors calculate correlation functions of some field variables which are invariant under diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations. The authors show that the correlation functions are expressed by the linking number.
