Hot Tuna Hesitation Blues lyrics

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?

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 swim to the bottom, Lord and never come up
Tell me how long


Well, rocks in the ocean, said to fish in the sea
Know you mean the world to me
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, Lord, must I hesitate?

Well, the hesitation stalker's got them hesitation shoes
You know, Lord, I got the hesitation blues
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, Lord, must I hesitate?
Said, can I get you now, how long must I hesitate?
