walk in these shoes a dozen miles
hang down you head like a defeated, disciplined child
think in your mind the times of strife you have
beating in your heart your last blood you bleed less
go asleep and as you wake
you awake just to sleep
and all your dreams you've been denied
come and go run and hide
Over the stones
over the mounds and hills
Over the grasses roam
Over the on through river banks
over through meadows lakes
while yet still in the distance
still you walk in worn shoes a ragged dozen miles
walk
walk
walk
walk in worn shoes a ragged dozen miles
