Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Ah
Oh, yeah
Ah
[Verse 2]
I just talked to my baby on the telephone
She said, "Stop what you're doin' and come on home"
I can't hold out
I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feelin' talkin' to you on the phone
[Verse 3]
She said, "Baby, don't you worry, you're my desire"
I love you, pretty baby, and I hate to see you cry
I can't hold out
I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feelin' talkin' to you on the phone
[Verse 4]
Oh, yeah, mmm, ah
Oh, yeah
Oh
[Verse 5]
She said, "Daddy, you can run, ah, walk, or fly"
You know I love you, baby, you're my heart desire
I can't hold out
I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feelin' talkin' to you on the phone
[Verse 6]
Whoa, yeah, talk to me, baby
Talk to me, baby
Talk to me, baby
