I've always heard that haste makes waste So I believe in takin' my time The highest mountain can't be raced It's something you must slowly climb I want a slow and easy man He needn't ever take the lead 'Cause I work on that long-time plan And I ain't a-lookin' for no speed I'm a one hour mama No one minute papa Ain't the kind of man for me It takes a long time papa When I was that proper To love you like I long to be I don't want no lame excuses 'Bout my lovin' bein' so good That you couldn't wait no longer Now I hope I'm understood I'm a one hour mama No one minute papa Ain't the kind of man for me I don't want no greenhorn lover Like a rookie goin' to war With a load of big artillery But don't know what it's for He's got to bring me a reference With a great long pedigree And must prove he's got endurance Or he don't mean naught to me I can't stand no crowin' rooster One that hits a lick or two Action is the only booster Of just what my man must do I don't want no imitation My requirements ain't no joke And I get pure indignation For a guy that's lost his stroke I'm a one hour mama No one minute papa Ain't the kind of man for me It takes a long time papa One hour, that's proper To love me like I long to be I may want love for one hour Then decide to make it two Takes an hour 'fore I get started Maybe three before I'm through I'm a one hour mama So no one minute papa Ain't the kind of man for me He ain't the kind of man for me

about

“When I was a young aspiring singer in the early 1960s, one of the great Classic Blues Queens of the 1920s and ‘30s, Victoria Spivey, took me under her wing and mentored me,” Muldaur remembers in the album’s liner notes. “Although, of course, I appreciated it at the time, over the years I’ve come to realize just how important her encouragement and support were to me and so many other musicians!”
