Remix by Henrik Schwarz and featuring Robert Owens on vocals.

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
Through my eyes ... instead of your ego
I believe you'd be ... surprised to see
That you'd been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
Hey, 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 hair
The same way you do,
Well I may be common people
But I'm still your brother
And when you strike out, and try to hurt me
It's a-hurtin' you

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 ... but for 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

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
Hey, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Better walk a mile in my shoes

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
Uh, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes, yeah

Walk a mile in my shoes
