Hesitating Blues

Hello Central, what's the matter with this line?

I wanna talk to that sweet man of mine

Tell me how long will I have to wait?

Please give me two nine eight, why do you hesitate?

What do you say, can't talk to my man?

A storm last night blowed the wire all down

Tell me how long will I have to wait?

Will he come back now or will he hesitate?

Procrastination is the thief of time

So all the wise owls say

One stitch in time may save nine

Tomorrow's not today

And if you put off, someone's bound to

Sunday night, my beau proposed to me

Said he'd be happy if his wife I'd be

Oh, how long will I have to wait?

Come be my wife, my Kate, why do you hesitate?

Well I declined him, just for a stall

He left that night on the Cannonball

Oh, how long will I have to wait?

Will he come back now or will he hesitate?

I'd be his, he'd be mine and I'd be feelin' gay

Left alone, grieve and pine, my best friend's gone away

He's gone and left me the hesitating blues

The hesitating blues, those hesitating blues
