You know I believe people as a whole would be more tolerant of each other
If by some magical means they’d be able to change places with each other
that is to live in the environment and experience the hardships
and have to do without some of the small things
that most would consider to be very precious
I believe that they would think twice before they ridicule and embarrass
people they know nothing about
Except for what they’ve been told or what has been instilled in them from childhood
things are not always what they seem to be
especially when you were on the outside looking in
instead of on the inside looking out

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' be surprised to see that you'd been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile shoes
Before you abuse
Criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Well this 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

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile shoes
Before you abuse
Criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

And if 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 sister
And when you strike out and try to hurt me it's a 'hurtin you

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile shoes
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 shoes
Before you abuse
Criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
