Hesitation Blues - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Nickel is a nickel and a dime is a dime

Need a new gal, youse don't mind

Woman, tell me how long do I have to wait?

Can you tell me now, must I hesitate?

Well, rocks in the ocean and the fish in the sea

Knows you mean the world to me

Woman, tell me how long gonna make me wait?

Can you love me now, must I hesitate?

Oh, the ocean was whiskey, and the banks was wine

You'd see me in the water, baby, all the time

Better bе able to tell me how long you gonna makе me wait

I wanna love you now, just don't make me hesitate

(Oh sing it)

If the rivers was whiskey and I was a duck

I'd swim to the bottom and I'd never come up

Darlin', tell me how long you'd have to wait

You gonna love me, woman, must I hesitate?

Well, the hesitating rhythm's in my hesitating shoes

Oh, once again I got the hesitation blues

Oh, tell me how long do I have to wait?

Can I tell you now, must I hesitate?

(Oh)
