Dave Van Ronk and The Red Onion Jazz Band - Hesitation Blues
Woke up this morning lookin' for my shoes
Looked behind the trunk, felt the hesitation blues
Lordy, tell me how long will I have to wait?
Can I get to you now? Must I hesitate
Well, I'm goin' to the river take a rockin' chair
If blues overtake me rock away from here
Lordy, tell me how long will I have to wait?
Can I get to you now? Must I hesitate
Well, I'm goin' up the mountain, peep through a hole
Saw your little monkey doin' the sweet jelly roll
Lordy, tell me how long will I have to wait?
Can I get to you now? Must I hesitate
Well, I'm goin' to the river, gonna sit right down
If the blues overtake me I'll jump in and drown
Lordy, tell me how long will I have to wait?
Can I get to you now? Must I hesitate
