Joe_F	Origin: Hesitation Blues / Hesitating Blues (20)	RE: Origin: Hesitation Blues / Hesitating Blues	21 Jan 17
It is weird how many songs, many consisting of floating verses, this title seems to have gotten itself attached to. Here is yet another one, to add to the confusion. It is from The Coffee House Songbook (Oak, 1966). Punctuation regularized; the dashes are in the book. Warning: pretty vulgar. HESITATION BLUES Mitch Greenman [the source, not the author or composer] Well, standing on the corner with a dollar in my hand, Lookin' for a woman who's lookin' for a man. Tell me how long do I have to wait? Can I get you now, or must I hesitate? Well, the eagle on the dollar say "In God we trust." Woman wants a man, she wants to see a dollar first. Well, pussy ain't nothin' but meat on the bone. You can ---- it, you can ---- it, you can leave it alone. Well, you hesitate by one, and you hesitate by two. Angels up in heaven singin' hesitatin' blues.
