Shake On It

<br>There`d be a blue out the back<br>And we`d all rush from the bar to take a look<br>Drover Pat and Billy Rnold had been drinking<br>In the heat all afternoon<br>They were rolling in the dirt<br>Fists were flying and things were getting rough<br>But when Billy started bleeding<br>The publican said fellas break it up<br>CHORUS<br> Shake on it, just put it there<br> That`s the way it`s always been `round here<br> You could trust a man when he held out his hand<br> and said `Let`s shake on it<br>They were battered and bruised<br>When Pat and Billy picked themselfes up<br>They looked each other over<br>And two grins appeared from beneath the sweat and dust<br>Billy picked up his hat<br>And clipped his old mate on the ear<br>And said we`ll call it a draw Pat<br>But I reckon you owe me a beer<br>CHORUS<br>BRIDGE<br> Now the years have rolled by<br> And they still disagree<br> But that old handshake`s as firm<br> as it used to be<br>CHORUS
