Shake a Hand
Embrace Life's Harmony: Little Richard's 'Shake a Hand' Meaning
Lyrics
Just leave it to me
Assurance that the speaker will take charge of a situation.
Don't ever be ashamed
Encouragement not to feel embarrassed or guilty.
Just give me a chance
An appeal for an opportunity to prove oneself.
I'll take care of everything
Commitment to handle all responsibilities.
Your troubles I'll share
Expression of willingness to share and alleviate troubles.
Let me know and I'll be there
Offer to be there for the person in need.
I'll take care of you
Reiteration of the commitment to take care of the individual.
Any place and every where
Availability and readiness to assist anywhere.
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Encouragement to engage in a symbolic gesture of connection (shaking hands) as a sign of cooperation and mutual support.
Shake a hand, shake a hand
-Shake a hand, shake a hand
-Shake a hand if you can
-Be truthful to me
Request for honesty and sincerity in the relationship.
I'll be truthful to you
Promise to reciprocate truthfulness.
I'm in love with you so
Declaration of love for the other person.
And I don't know, just what to do
Expression of uncertainty about how to navigate the feelings.
So, let's call it a day
Suggesting the end of a conversation or discussion.
I said all I've got to say
Completion of thoughts shared, except for a crucial reminder.
Except don't, don't forget to pray, yeah
Emphasis on the importance of prayer in life.
And shake a hand every day
Encouragement to shake hands daily as a positive and friendly gesture.
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Reiteration of the importance of shaking hands for connection and cooperation.
Shake a hand, shake a hand
-Shake a hand, shake a hand
-Shake a hand if you can
