Hesitation Blues-Jim Jackson
G position, standard tuning

"Hello Central, what's the matter with your line?
I want to talk to that high brown of mine."
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

I'm going to the river with a rope and a rock
And the way you grieve me, I'm gonna jump over the dock
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Uh, can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

I got somethin' to tell you, and I know it ain't good news
'Cause a hesitatin' woman give me the hesitation blues
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

I'm go and tell the Sergeant and see the Chief Police
'Cause the women 'round here won't let me see no peace
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Uh, can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

I've got a girl in Memphis is all right
But the girl in Cincinnati is just too tight
REFRAIN: Baby, how long will I have to wait
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

I got a girl in Cairo, loves me, I know
But the girl in Louisville is got the best gold
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Uh, can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

My Mother says I'm wicked, Daddy says I'm wild
I know I ain't good-lookin' but some woman's angel child
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate

I've sang you these verses and it didn't take long
If you want to hear any more, you'll have to buy this song
REFRAIN: Tell me how long will I have to wait
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate
