Elmore James
I Can’t Hold Out
Yeah
Oh, yeah
Ahhh
[Verse 1]
I just talked to my baby
On the telephone
She said, "Stop what you're doing
And come on home"
[Chorus]
I can't hold out
I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling
Talking to you on the phone
[Verse 2]
You said, "Baby don't you worry
You're my desire
I love you, pretty baby
And I hate to see you cry"
[Chorus]
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
[Guitar solo]
Oh yeah-heh
Oh
[Verse 3]
She said, "daddy, you can run
Walk or fly
You know I love you, baby
You my heart's desire"
[Chorus]
I can't hold out
I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling
Talking to you on the phone
[Outro]
Oh yeah
Talk to me, baby
Talk to me, baby
Talk to me, baby
