(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
