Hesitation Blues

She has the hesitation stockins, the hesitation shoes
Believe to my soul, got the hesitation blues
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

I can line a track and I can ball the jack
I can beat anybody gettin' the good gal back
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

And I got a gal, Lexington Road
C & O runs right by her door
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

'Round the curve and around the bend
Yonder comes that L & N
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

Rations on the table, coffee's gettin' cold
My little gal grinds her meal at home
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

I'm not so good-lookin', got no curly hair
L & N movements take me anywhere
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

I can line a track and I can ball the jack
Beat anybody gettin' the good gal back
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate

I got a gal, Lexington Road
C & O runs right by her door
How long now, will I have to wait?
Can I get you now, honey, has to hesitate
