Hesitating Blues
(专辑: St. Louis Blues - 1958)
Hello Central, what's the
matter with this line? I
wanna talk to that sweet man of mine Tell me how long will I
have to wait? Please give me two nine eight, why do you hesitate? What do you say, can't talk to my man? A
storm last night blowed the
wire all down Tell me how long will I
have to wait? Will he come back now or will he hesitate? Procrastination is the
thief of time So all the
wise owls say One stitch in time may save nine Tomorrow's not today And if you put off, someone's bound to Sunday night, my beau proposed to me Said he'd be happy if his wife I'd be Oh, how long will I
have to wait? Come be my wife, my Kate, why do you hesitate? Well I
declined him, just for a
stall He left that night on the
Cannonball Oh, how long will I
have to wait? Will he come back now or will he hesitate? I'd be his, he'd be mine and I'd be feeling gay Left alone, grieve and pine, my best friend's gone away He's gone and left me the
hesitating blues The
hesitating blues, those hesitating blues
