Could You Walk A Mile lyrics

written by Jimmy Alan Stewart - JB Rudd

He`d know the ten commandments from the time he was five
But in the jungles of Vietnam there was no wrong or right
He was a decorated hero when he stepped down off the train
But some folks in his home town only made him feel ashamed

Could you walk a mile in that man`s shoes
When you have no choice, how can you choose
Don`t be quick to judge `til you`ve been there too
Stop and think for a while
Could you walk a mile in that man`s shoes

There was no one to hold her hand the night her baby came
Just a couple waiting down the hall, who would give her child a name
At seventeen she learned the meaning of a mother`s love
To give her baby life she knew she had to give it up

Could you walk a mile in that woman`s shoes
When you have no choice, how can you choose
Don`t be quick to judge `til you`ve been there too
Stop and think for a while
Could you walk a mile in that woman`s shoes

They cursed him and they kicked him as they dragged him down the street
They nailed him to a cross and soldiers gambled at his feet
And though his heart was broken from all they`d put him through
He said `Father, please forgive them. They know not what they do.`

Could you walk a mile in that man`s shoes
When you have no choice, how can you choose
Don`t be quick to judge `til you`ve been there too
Stop and think for a while
Could you walk a mile in that man`s shoes

Stop and think for a while
Could you walk a mile in that man`s shoes
