John & Audrey Wiggins Could You Walk A Mile Lyrics

He'd known the Ten Commandments from the time he was five
But in the jungles, if 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 awhile, could you walk a mile in that man's shoes

There was no one there 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 awhile, 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 awhile, could you walk a mile in that man's shoes?
Stop and think for awhile, could you walk a mile in that man's shoes?
