(Hey Mister there's something you ought to know) You're shaking the hand that's 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 no easy way to say it In less than a day three worlds are upside down If the needs of a wife are 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 the hand... You're shaking the hand... Yes you're shaking the hand that held something of yours last night
