i can t hold out

Elmore James

I just talked to my baby on the telephone
She said, "Stop what you're doing and baby come on
home"
I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone
You said, "Baby don't you worry, you're my heart's
desire
you know that I love you, I can't stand to see you
cry"
I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone
She said, "Baby you can run, you can walk or fly
you know that I love you, you're my heart's desire"
I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone,
oh yeah
I talked to my baby, I talked to my baby
I talked to my baby, I talked to my baby
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone
