Shakin' Hands Lyrics
(Hey, Hey)
She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door
You grow up quick when you grow up poor
It's the only way to LA that she knows
The Hollywood pose: teeth, tits, and toes
It didn't take her long to leave the boulevard
So many five-star friends with black credit cards
She'd try anything once
Cause anything goes
It never comes easy when you're digging for gold
(Hey, Hey)
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise if the promise collects
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She’ll shake her money maker twice as hard as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
(Hey, Hey)
I doubt she'd even let the devil buy a little black book
City hall would probably fall if anyone got a look
Every A-list player is a favorite friend
Since they all taste the same in the back of the Benz
A congressman would call her every once in a while
Got the school girl skirt on the top of the pile
She's done everyone once
And everyone knows
You got to get a little dirty when you're digging for gold
(Hey, Hey)
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise if the promise collects
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She’ll shake her money maker twice as hard as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
Well someone spilled the beans and now her name's in the press
Tough to keep it all a secret when you're one of the best
The judge is going easy because he paid for her chest
Yeah he loves his little naughty wicked witch of the west
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She’ll shake her money maker twice as hard as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door
You grow up quick when you grow up poor
It's the only way to LA that she knows
The Hollywood pose: teeth, tits, and toes

in the second verse, it's A-list not aimless.
Yeah, have to think this song was inspired by the high price postitute that brought down Mark Spitzer, and kind of opened up a lot of peoples eyes to fact the prositiues aren't always the girls on street corners, there are some getting very rich.
Gotta think right now this is my favorite off the new album, but it's a big tossup really. I know there are a lot of Nickelback haters out there but they really pulled off a kick ass album with this one.
wow I love this new song :) S.E.X. is a bit better though. Can someone explain me, what: "That's why she's making six figures working three days a week" figures means in this context?
Makin' six figures = Making over $100,000. Workin' three days a week = what it says on the can.

Basically, she's getting paid an exorbitant amount of money in a really short time.

You can figure it out from there. ~suggestive themes! Eghads!~

When someone makes over $100,000 a year people usually call it "six figures" being that there are six numbers.
several lines wrong with these lyrics
its ''Black Credit Cards'' not ''That Credit Card''
its ''Teeth, Tits and Toes'' not ''Teeth, Tips and Drawers''
I love this song too, especially the line "Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west" though I'm not sure what "it" is referring to :P
Anyway, what's so hard about just typing over hte lyrics form the booklet?
By the way, can anyone explain what a black book is referring to? I think it's in a Kelly Clarkson song as well..
The "little black book" is a black phone book, in which you write out the phone numbers people you know. Commonly men have them and in it are the numbers of several women the sleep with.

tl;dr version: phone book of all the numbers of people she sleeps with

'The judge is going easy because he paid for her breasts'
and it's chest, not breasts.
"teeth, tips, and drawers"
LMFAO! What an idiot...someone submit the correct lyrics for this song, please.
