'TIL YOU WALK AWHILE IN SOMEONE ELSE'S SHOES
©Billy O'Dwyer Bob 2000

I just want to tell you that I'm sorry
I never meant to spread such silly lies
'Cause hurting you was never my intention
And if I did, I do apologise.

Chorus
'Cause I don't want to be no judge or jury
And I don't want to condemn or accuse
But you can never tell someone
How they should live their lives
'Til you walk awhile in someone else's shoes.

I don't want to be no bitter old man
'Cause bitter old men go through life alone
And someday if I ever meet my maker
I'd like to think I'll know which way I'm going.

Chorus

I don't want you thinking that I'm crazy
But people they can make me more than mad
And just because they think I'm different maybe
No matter what they say, I'm not that bad.

Chorus

I don't want to wake up dead some morning
Knowing that I never raised a hand
In knowing that I caused no pain or suffering
Or prejudice against my fellow man.

Chorus
