Anticipation Blues - Tennessee Ernie Ford[00:00:00]
She just got home from the doctor's[00:00:06]
I just got home from the mill[00:00:09]
She looked a little peaked [00:00:12]
Her eyes were kind-a streaked[00:00:14]
I couldn't figure out what made her ill[00:00:15]
She looked a little weepish [00:00:18]
Smiled kinda sheepish[00:00:20]
The answer hit me like a hickory mall[00:00:21]
I throwed my dinner bucket down[00:00:24]
Yelled like my trailin' hound[00:00:26]
I was gonna be a daddy after all[00:00:27]
Now the waitin'[00:00:30]
Anticipatin'[00:00:32]
Rock-a-bye[00:00:34]
I'm gonna be a daddy now [00:00:35]
Well the weeks went by kinda sweetly [00:00:46]
Then all at once[00:00:50]
I thought she'd lost her mind[00:00:51]
She would rant she would rave [00:00:53]
For the things she would crave[00:00:54]
Like ice cream and sauerkraut combined[00:00:56]
She wanted watermelon it was wintertime[00:00:59]
Dill pickles set around the house in jars[00:01:03]
My how she'd eat that stuff [00:01:05]
She never seemed to get enough[00:01:07]
But at 3am she'd want candy bars[00:01:08]
Oh the waitin'[00:01:12]
Anticipatin'[00:01:13]
Rock-a-bye[00:01:15]
I'm gonna be a daddy now [00:01:16]
Well at last the time was drawin' near [00:01:27]
I began to walk and pace and sweat[00:01:31]
The doctor said: Now son [00:01:34]
I know this ain't no fun[00:01:36]
But we ain't never lost a Daddy yet[00:01:37]
I stood up and set down [00:01:40]
I even though of leavin' town[00:01:41]
The doctor and nurse came out all grins[00:01:43]
They said: Buck up my boy[00:01:46]
You should shout with joy [00:01:48]
You're the Daddy of a pair of bouncin' twins [00:01:49]
No more waitin anticipatin' rock-a-bye [00:01:52]
I'm a Daddy now[00:01:57]
