Hesitation Blues

[Verse 1]

Well, a nickel is a nickel, a dime is a dime

I need a new man, Lord, I know I won't mind

How long, dear, do I have to wait?

Can I get you now, dear? Must I hesitate?

[Verse 2]

Well, an eagle on a dollar says "In God we trust"

You say you won't obey me, you wanna see the dollar first

How long, dear, do I have to wait?

Can I get you now, dear? Must I hesitate?

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]

Lord, if the river was made of whiskey, I was a duck

I'd just swim to the bottom and I'd never come up

How long, dear, mm, do I have to wait?

Why can't I get you now, dear? Must I hesitate?

[Verse 4]

I know there's rocks down in the ocean and there's fish in the sea

I know you mean the whole world to me

How long, dear, must I have to wait?

Can I get you now, dear? Must I hesitate?

[Verse 5]

I got them hesitation stockings, I got them hesitation shoes

Lord knows I got them hesitation blues

Tell me, how long do I have to wait?

Why can I get you now, dear? Must I hesitate?

[Outro]

Yes (That sounds good!)
