Hesitation Blues
(Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady)
Well, nickel is a nickel, I said, dime is a dime
I need a new gal, she won’t mind
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, I said, must I hesitate?
The eagle on the dollar says “in God we trust”
You say you want a man
You wanna see that dollar first
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, I said, must I hesitate?
Well, If the river was whiskey, said, I was a duck
You know I’d sink to the bottom
Lord, and never come up
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, I said, must I hesitate?
