Hesitation Blues Lyrics


I got my hesitatin' feet, my hesitatin' shoes
I believe to my soul I got the hesitatin' blues
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
I was born in Pennsylvania, I was raised in France
I'm a dirty old man and I wear silk pants
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
I'm a jackhammer man in a jackhammer town
And I hammer on my hammer til the sun goes down
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
T for Texas, also Tennessee,
If you don't like my peaches stop shakin' my tree
Tell me how long do I have to wait?

Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
It's D for dreadnought, D for destiny,
D for doojee that made a fool of me
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
Got my psychedelic feet in my psychedelic shoes
I believe, lordy mama, got the psychedelic blues
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Or can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
(Note - dreadnought is a type of guitar and doojee is a slang term for heroin.)

Dan Hicks (born December 9, 1941) is a musician whose style blends elements of folk and jazz (and bits of other genres, too). His music is also infused with a good dose of humor (e.g., one of his most popular songs: "How can I miss you when you won't go away"). Hicks was in the San Francisco band The Charlatans, but is perhaps best known for his work with "Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks" which existed from sometime in the mid-1960s until 1973, culminating in the album Last Train to Hicksville.
