Hesitating Blues

Been over the river and I’ve been over the sea
Called on a woman who wouldn’t have me
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Well it floats up the river and it won’t come down
water bound
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
It snows in the winter it rains in the fall
No good rabbit’s come along at all
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Well it’s a five dollar note and my feet on the ground
But I lost me a woman when the train left town
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Lived in the country, lived in the town
No good women’s gonna throw me down
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Had a ring on her finger laying on a feather bed
Now cold where you lay your head
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
I’ll stand on the corner with a dollar in my hand
Just looking for a woman ain’t got no man
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Well, the hesitatin' stalker’s got them hesitatin' shoes
Lord, I got them Hesitatin' Blues
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
Born in the valley and raised on the hill
Had a taste for ramblin' and I’m ramblin' still
Tell me how long have I got to wait
Can I get you know or do I have to hesitate
