Lyrics:
Walk A Mile In My Shoes Joe South and The Believers Written by Joe South
Peaked at # 12 in 1970 Re-make 4 months later by Willie Hightower managed only # 107
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 Mm-mm, 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
TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: rather ignominious ending-no two musicians seem to stop at the same time
