Walk A Mile by Coldcut
Walk A Mile lyrics
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
Trough my eyes
Instead of your ego
I believe you'd be
Surprised to see
That you've been blind
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize 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 you
Lived a life
Of total perfection
You'd better be careful
Of every stone
That you should throw
And yet we spend the day
Throwing stones
At one another
Cause I don't think
Or wear my hat
The same way you do
Well I may be
Common people
But I'm still your brother
And when you strike out
Trying to hurt me
It's hurting you
(2x)
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And 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
Before the grace of god
Go you and I
If I only
Had the wings
Of a little angel
Don't you know I'd fly
To the top of the mountain
And then I'd cry
(4x)
Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
