[Verse 1]
Just leave it to me
Now don't you ever be ashamed
Just give me a chance
And I'll take care of everything
Your troubles I share
I'll let you know when I'll be there
I'll take care, take care of you
Any place and everywhere

[Chorus]
Shake a hand, shake a hand
A-shake a hand if you can
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand if you can

[Piano Solo]

[Verse 2]
Be truthful to me and I'll be truthful to you
But I'm in love, I'm in love with your soul
And I don't now just what to do
So let's call it a day
I've said all I've got to say
Except, oh yeah, baby, you got to learn how to pray
And shake a hand every day

[Guitar Solos]

[Verse 2]
Be truthful to me and I'll be truthful to you
But I'm in love, I'm in love with your soul
And I don't now just what to do

[Chorus]
So shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand if you can
Shake a hand, shake a hand
Shake a hand if you can

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
