"Hesitation Blues" lyrics
"Hesitation Blues"
Got my hesitation stockings, hesitation shoes
Lord almighty got them hesitation blues
And tell me how long, oh, must I have to wait?
Can I get you now, oh no, must I hesitate
A nickle is a nickle, and a dime is a dime
I got a house full of kids, one of them must be mine
Oh how long, must I have to wait?
Can I get you now, oh no, must I hesitate
And I'm standing on the corner with a dollar in my hand
Looking for a woman who's looking for a man
How long, Good God must I wait?
Can I get you now, oh no, must I hesitate
Never been to heaven, but I've been told
Old Saint Peter knows how to jelly-roll
How long, must I have to wait?
Can I get you now, oh no, must I hesitate
Hesitation, got my hesitation
Lord almighty got my hesitation
How long, must I have to...
Can I... oh no, must I hesitate
Standing on the corner with a dollar in my hand
Looking for a woman who's looking for a man
How long, Good God must I wait?
Can I get you now, oh no, must I hesitate
Hesitation blues...

Love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough
Nor strong enough

Yesterday don't matter 'cause it's gone
While the sun is bright or in the darkest night
No one knows
