(Hey Mister something you ought to know) You're shaking my hand they're shaking your world to pieces Don't you understand that the time and place were right To you she's a wife but to me she's a lot of woman And you're shaking the hand that held something of yours last night There's not much to say and know easy way to say it And last in a day three worlds are upside down If the needs of a wife I neglected in life she'll go wrong to make things right And you're shaking the hand that held something of yours last night You're shaking my hand... [ strings ] You're shaking my hand... Yes you're shaking the hand that held something of yours last night
