Walk A Mile In My Shoes (Island Records '74) - Синглы / Single_s
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, mmmm 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, mmmm
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 Karma 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, mmmm 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...
