If I could be you and you could be me for just one hour |
|
If we could find a way to get inside each other's mind |
|
If you could see you through my eyes instead of your ego |
|
I believe you'd be surprised to see that you'd been blind |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes |
|
Yeah, before you abuse, criticize and accuse |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes |
|
Well, 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 |
|
Mmm, you'd better be careful of every stone |
|
That you should throw |
|
Yet we spend the day throwin' stones at one another |
|
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair same way you do |
|
Well, I may be common people but I'm your brother |
|
And when you strike out and try to hurt me it's a hurtin' you |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes |
|
Yeah, before you abuse, criticize and accuse |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes |
|
There are people on reservations |
|
And out in the ghettos |
|
And brother, there, but for the grace of God |
|
Go you and I |
|
If I only had the wings of little angels |
|
Don'tcha you know I'd fly |
|
To the top of the mountain |
|
And then I'd cry? |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes |
|
Hey, before you abuse, criticize and accuse |
|
Better walk a mile in my shoes |
|
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, walk a mile in my shoes |
|
Hey, before you abuse, criticize and accuse |
|
Walk a mile in my shoes |
