Artist/Band: Jerry Lee Lewis
Lyrics for Song: Walk A Mile In My Shoes
Lyrics for Album: Mercury Smashes...And Rockin' Sessions [2000]



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 how mercy





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

This recording captures the essence of his live intensity, featuring his trademark foot-stomping and guitar-driven arrangements that became hallmarks of his discography.
