Lyrics
Oh, let's shake hands! Oh, baby, let's shake hands.
Well, there's something here in the air.
Jump up and let me know when you're there.
Baby, let's shake hands.
Oh, let's be friends! Oh, baby, let's be friends.
I can't come up with a better plan.
Put your fingers in my hand.
Baby, let's be friends.
Oh, say my name! Oh, baby, say my name.
Well, you can do what you want to do.
Throw it in the garbage can,
But just say my name!
