Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hey girls, gather round

Listen to what I'm puttin' down

Hey baby, I'm your handy man

[Verse 2]

I'm not the kind to use a pencil or rule

I'm handy with love and I'm no fool

I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can

[Verse 3]

If your broken heart should need repair

Then I am the man to see, yeah

I whisper sweet things, you tell all your friends

They'll come runnin' to me

[Verse 4]

Here is the main thing that I want to say

I'm busy twenty four hours a day

I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can

[Verse 5]

Come, come, come, come, come, come (Come on)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Come, come, come, come, come, come (Oh now)

They'll come runnin' to me

[Verse 6]

Here is the main thing I want to say

I'm busy twenty four hours a day

I fix broken hearts, baby, I'm your handy man

[Verse 7]

Come, come, come, come, come, come (Come)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Come, come, come, come, come, come (Come on)

Yeah, yeah, yeah (That's me)

I'm your handy man (Come, come, come, come, come, come)

That's me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'm your handy man (Come, come, come, come, come, come)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
