Shake On It Lyrics - Singles - Kernaghan Lee

There'd be a blue out the back 

And we'd all rush from the bar to take a look 

Drover Pat and Billy Rnold had been drinking 

In the heat all afternoon 

They were rolling in the dirt 

Fists were flying and things were getting rough 

But when Billy started bleeding 

The publican said fellas break it up 

CHORUS 

Shake on it, just put it there 

That's the way it's always been 'round here 

You could trust a man when he held out his hand 

and said 'Let's shake on it 

They were battered and bruised 

When Pat and Billy picked themselfes up 

They looked each other over 

And two grins appeared from beneath the sweat and dust 

Billy picked up his hat 

And clipped his old mate on the ear 

And said we'll call it a draw Pat 

But I reckon you owe me a beer 

CHORUS 

BRIDGE 

Now the years have rolled by 

And they still disagree 

But that old handshake's as firm 

as it used to be 

CHORUS
