Hold the Line Lyrics

Baby hold the line, I'm so far away
I've put in a hundred dimes, just to hear your voice say
Honey I'm missing you, I'm coming down with the flu
But I'm coming home good this time
So baby hold the line

Your girlfriend called and your bookie friend dropped by
They both need cash, ole Louis said gonna dash
But honey I'm so alone stuck here with this damn phone
But I won't be there for you this time
Oh baby hold the line
Yeah baby hold the line

No matter how hard we try
Some things we lose we need find
But baby you gotta hold the line

Baby don't you hang up, you know I hate to hear you cry
& I just gotta get some sleep, I don't want nightmares tonight
And you'll feel better in the morning, and not so ragged and torn
Between your heart and your mind
Oh baby hold the line
