Anticipation Blues - Tennessee Ernie Ford[00:00:00]
She just got home from the doctor's[00:00:08]
I just got home from the mill[00:00:11]
She looked a little peaked [00:00:14]
Her eyes were kind-a streaked[00:00:16]
I couldn't figure out what made her ill[00:00:18]
She looked a little weepish [00:00:21]
Smiled kinda sheepish[00:00:23]
The answer hit me like a hickory mall[00:00:24]
I throwed my dinner bucket down[00:00:28]
Yelled like my trailin' hound[00:00:29]
I was gonna be a daddy after all[00:00:31]
Now the waitin'[00:00:34]
Anticipatin'[00:00:36]
Rock-a-bye[00:00:38]
I'm gonna be a daddy now [00:00:40]
Well the weeks went by kinda sweetly [00:00:45]
Then all at once[00:00:49]
I thought she'd lost her mind[00:00:49]
She would rant she would rave [00:00:52]
For the things she would crave[00:00:53]
Like ice cream and sauerkraut combined[00:00:55]
She wanted watermelon it was wintertime[00:00:59]
Dill pickles set around the house in jars[00:01:02]
How she'd eat that stuff [00:01:06]
She never seemed to get enough[00:01:07]
And at 3am she'd want candy bars[00:01:09]
Now the waitin'[00:01:12]
Anticipatin'[00:01:14]
Rock-a-bye[00:01:16]
I'm gonna be a daddy now [00:01:17]
Well at last the time was drawin' near [00:01:23]
I began to walk and pace and sweat[00:01:27]
The doctor said: now son [00:01:30]
I know this ain't no fun[00:01:32]
But we ain't never lost a daddy yet[00:01:33]
I stood up and set down [00:01:37]
I even though of leavin' town[00:01:38]
The doctor and nurse came out all grins[00:01:40]
They said: Buck up[00:01:44]
My boy you should shout with joy [00:01:45]
You're the daddy of a pair of bouncin' twins [00:01:47]
No more waitin anticipatin' anticipatin'[00:01:50]
Anticipatin'[00:01:53]
Rock-a-bye [00:01:54]
I'm a daddy now[00:01:55]
