[Verse 1]
Just leave it to me
Don't ever be ashamed
Just give me a chance
I'll take care of everything
[Verse 2]
Your troubles I'll share
Let me know, and I'll be there
I'll stay close to you
Any place and anywhere
[Chorus]
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand if you can
[Verse 3]
Be truthful to me
I'll be truthful to you
I'm in love with you
'Til I don't know what to do
[Verse 4]
So, let's call it a day
I've said all I have to say
Except, "Don't forget to pray
And shake a hand every day"
[Chorus]
Shake a hand, shake a hand
I always wanted to please just shake a hand
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand if you can
[Outro]
