So unless you've lived a life of total perfection
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
There are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
If I only had the wings of a little angel
Walk a mile in my shoes
And the law of karma, says you reap, just what you sow
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk, walk, walk a mile in my shoes
If you could see you through my eyes, instead of your ego
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
I believe you'd be surprised to see, that you'd been blind
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Well, I may be common people but I'm your brother
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
And yet we spend the day throwing stones at one another
Walk a mile in my shoes
And brother, there but for the grace of God, go you and I
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk, walk, walk a mile in my shoes
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair the same way you do
Walk a mile in my shoes
Don't you know I'd fly to the top of the mountain and then I'd cry
Walk a mile in my shoes
You'd better be careful of every stone that you should throw
Now your whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And when you strike out and try to hurt me it's a-hurtin' you
Walk, walk, walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
