Hesitating Blues - rehearsal sequence歌词

Performed by Louis Armostrong and Velma.
(Louis)
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?
(Instrumental break)
(Velma)
Say, Sunday night
My beau proposed to me
Said he'd be happy if his wife I 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?
