This world's full of heartaches
You can't understand
Slipped through my fingers
A grain of golden sand
Day the world
Shook my hand

Hang around here honey long enough
And all your soft edges just get tough
Day the world shook my hand
Shook my hand
And called me son

Shook my hand
Said boy your the one
We've been waitin' for
Met a girl with that magic in her eye
And her tongue told the saltiest lies
Day the world
Shook my hand
Went back home no friends remembered me
They were hoping I died quietly
Day the world

Shook my hand
Shook my hand
And called me son
Shook my hand
Said boy your the one
We've been waitin' for
Now it's drivin' rain outside
And I'm just trying to keep my pride dry
Day the world

Shook my hand
Shook my hand
And called me son
Shook my hand
Said boy your the one
We've been waitin' for
Yea your the one
We've been waiting for
