[Verse 1]
Give me your hand
I'd like to shake it
I want to show you I'm your friend
You'll understand
If I can make it clear
It's all that matters in the end

[Chorus]
"Put it there if it weights a ton"
That's what a father says to his young son
"I don't care if it weights a ton
As long as you and I are here, put it there
Long as you and I are here, put it there"

[Verse 2]
If there's a fight, I'd like to fix it
I hate to see things go so wrong
The darkest night and all it's mixed emotions
Are getting lighter sing along

[Chorus]
"Put it there if it weights a ton"
That's what a father says to his young son
"I don't care if it weights a ton
As long as you and I are here, put it there
Long as you and I are here, put it there"
