Walk A Mile In My Shoes (2002 Remastered Version) - Joe South
If i could be you if you could be me for just one hour
If we could find a way to get inside each other's mind mh
If you could see you through my eyes instead of your ego
I believe you'd be surprised to see that you've been blind mh
Walk a mile in my shoes walk a mile in my shoes
Hey before you abuse criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Now your whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of common says you're gonna reap just what you sow
So unless you've lived a life of total perfection
You'd better be careful of every stone that you should throw yeh heh
And yet we spend the day throwin' stones at one another
Cause i don't think or wear my hair the same way you do mh
Well i may be common people but i'm your brother
And when you strike out you're tryin' to hurt me it's hurtin' you
Lord have mercy
Walk a mile in my shoes walk a mile in my shoes
Babe before you abuse criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
And there are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
And brother there but for the grace of god go you and i yeh heh
And if i only had wings of a little angel well
Don't you know i'd fly to the top of a mountain and then i'd cry
Walk a mile in my shoes walk a mile in my shoes
Babe before you abuse criticize and accuse
Better walk a mile in my shoes
Try before what you're doing
Walk a mile in my shoes walk a mile in my shoes
Oh before you abuse criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
