Louis Armstrong - Hesitating Blues - Previously Unreleased Rehearsal Sequence Lyrics

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

I wanna talk to that high brown of mine

Tell me how long will I have to wait

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

Oh, what you say, can't talk to my brown?

A storm last night blowed the wires all down

Now, tell me how long will I have to wait

Oh, won't you tell me now, why do you hesitate?

Say, Sunday night, my beau proposed to me

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

Said he, "How long, baby, will I have to wait?"

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

Say, I declined him, it was just for a stall

He left that night on the cannonball

Honey, oh honey, how long, will I have to wait?

Oh, won't you tell me now, baby, why do you hesitate?
