The Shake of a Hand lyrics by Adam Harvey
Today grandad came by the office
Amazed at all the papers that i sign
I told him thats how we do business
Just a product of these modden(?) times
He shook his head and then said i dont understand
How all these deals are done
It just dont make no sense to me
To deal with people we dont see
We did it so much differently
When i was young
When the shake of a hand was all you really needed
The strength of a man was in his word
And you could look him in his eye and know just where you stand
A man was made on the shake of a hand
Well i put my pen down and closed up early
We drank a beer and talked the times he had
He reminised when he proposed to nana
And how he got permission from her dad
He smiled and said i wont forget the hardest hand i ever had to shake
I told him id take car of her and through the years ive kept my word
Son we said just what we meant back in those days
When the shake of a hand was all you really needed
The strength of a man was in his word
And you could look him in his eye and know just where you stand
A man was made on the shake of a hand
A shake of a hand was all you really needed
The strength of a man was in his word
And you could look him in his eye and know just where you stand
A man was made on the shake of a hand
