It's not what you get
It's what you will give
I've been the other way
Seen this thing before
And what are lessons
Time we have spent
Just look the other way
Always look the other way
Fight what other people say
I used to gather talk with pride
And it burned my hand
Words of wisdom I never did understand
Just give me your hand, hand, hand

Doesn't matter words I talk
It's coming right back to yourself
And we will lift you right on up
Just to bring you straight back down
And I won't throw my weight around,
Throw my weight around
I'm not much for good advice
For happy life that's all I can say

Fight what other people say
I used to gather talk with pride
'Til it burned my hand
Words of wisdom I never did understand
Just give me your hand, hand, hand

And I'm just as happy to watch you all wed
I'll just sit down right here meet you
At the end one day
And I won't live in fear of what you forget
There is no shame in something you can't hide

No problem for me to hate
I used to gather talk with pride
And it burned my hand
Words of wisdom I never did understand
Just give me your hand, hand, hand
Words of wisdom I never did understand
I used to gather talk with prides
And it burned my hand, hand, hand, hand
hand, hand, hand, hand...
