Well, a nickel is a nickel, a dime is a dime I need a new man, Lord I know I won't mind. Tell me how long, dear, do I have to wait? Can I get you now, dear, must I hesitate? Well now, the eagle on the dollar says 'In God we trust' You say you won't obey me, you wanna see that dollar first How long, dear, do I have to wait? Can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate? Lord, if the river was made of whiskey an' I was a duck, I'd just swim to the bottom an' I'd never come up. How long, dear, mm, do I have to wait? I got them Hesitation Stockings, I got them Hesitation Shoes, Lord knows I got them Hesitation Blues. Tell me, how long do I have to wait? Why, can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?
