If I could be you and you could be me for just one hour
If we could find a way to get inside each others minds
If you could see you, through my eyes, instead of your ego
I believe youd be, surprised to see, that youd been blind
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Now the whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of karma, says you reap, just what you sow
So unless youve, lived a life of total perfection
Youd better be careful of every stone that you should throw
And yet we spend the day throwing stones at one another
cause I dont think or wear my hair the same way you do
Well I may be common people but Im your brother
And when you strike out and try to hurt me its a-hurtin you
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 a little angel
Dont you know Id fly, to the top of the mountain, and then Id cry
If we could find a way to get inside each others minds
If you could see you, through my eyes, instead of your ego
I believe youd be, surprised to see, that youd been blind
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticise and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
Now the whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of karma, says you reap, just what you sow
So unless youve, lived a life of total perfection
Youd better be careful of every stone that you should throw
And yet we spend the day throwing stones at one another
cause I dont think or wear my hair the same way you do
Well I may be common people but Im your brother
And when you strike out and try to hurt me its a-hurtin you
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 a little angel
