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.)

Tuba Skinny of New Orleans, Louisiana has played traditional Dixieland Jazz and Old Blues songs under the name Tuba Skinny since 2009. They're cousins of Loose Marbles, as is Baby Soda in NYC. These groups have interchangeable players and it is a joy to witness these youngsters spreading the word about the New Orleans music. They have three albums, 'Tubaskinny' (2009), 'Six Feet Down' (2010) and 'Garbage Man' (2011), all of which can be streamed for free and are also available for download on their Bandcamp page.
