Smärtsamt bra text till denna låt

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
 If you could see you through my eyes
 Instead your own ego I believe you'd be
 I believe you'd be surprised to see
 That you've been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
 just walk a mile in my shoes
 Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
 Then walk a mile in my shoes

Now if we spend the day
 Throwin' stones at one another
 'Cause I don't think, 'cause I don't think
 Or wear my hair the same way you do
 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
 just walk a mile in my shoes
 Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
 Then walk a mile in my shoes

Now there are people on reservations
 And out in the ghetto
 And brother there, but, for the grace of God
 Go you and I,
If I only had wings of a little angel
 Don't you know, I'd fly
 To the top of a mountain
 And then I'd cry, cry, cry

Walk a mile in my shoes
 just walk a mile in my shoes
 Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
 Then walk a mile in my shoes
