I just talked to my baby on the telephone She said, “Stop what you’re doing, 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, 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 hearts 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 Talk to me baby, talk to me baby Talk to me baby, talk to me baby I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone, oh Songwriters: Elmore James I Can’t Hold Out lyrics © Arc Music, Arc Music Corp, E C Music Ltd Eric Clapton appeared on BBC’s Desert Island Discs in 1989.
