Lyrics:
We've all seen a man at the liquor store beggin' for your change
The hair on his face is dirty, dread-locked, and full of mange
He asks a man for what he could spare, with shame in his eyes
"Get a job you fu**in' slob," is all he replies
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues
(Hook)
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in love
He said, "don't worry about a thing, baby doll I'm the man you've been dreaming of."
But three months later he say he won't date her or return her calls
And she swear, "goddamn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls"
And then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walking through the door.
They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose
(Hook)
I've seen a rich man beg I've seen a good man sin
I've seen a tough man cry
I've seen a loser win and a sad man grin
I heard an honest man lie
I've seen the good side of bad and the downside of up
And everything between
I licked the silver spoon drank from the golden cup
And smoked the finest green
I stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times
Before I broke their heart
You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start
I knew this kid named Max who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
He liked to hang out late he liked to get shit-faced and keep the pace with thugs
Until late one night there was a big gun fight and max lost his head
He pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit, and wound up dead
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain
You know it comes that way at least that's what they say when you play the game
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like to have to lose

[@CotsOficial]

I believe the message of this music is: Never judge someone you don't know over something you didn't see with your own eyes. to have some compassion with other human beings. And that goes with my life philosophy - everybody fights for what they believe in. So How do you demonize a enemy who fights for whats right in his eyes? in the end we all want the greater good. So in the end, the fight becomes meaningless. A mere stone in our shoes that mankind needs to overcome. Very pretty song by the way.

[@toddabbott781]

The problem I have is that they have all these problems because of bad choices. It in not like they were injured in a car accident, got cancer, or their house burned down. Instead it was someone that put drugs and laziness above job, house, family..., another having unprotected sex, another hanging with gangs and pulling a gun... when he has a wife and kids at home. While I like the song personally and I might understand their situation, but I would have little sympathy for these people. They made the choices and likely will keep making bad choices until they hit rock bottom or die.

[@Carnyx_1]

The problem with "you don't understand my life" is that it works both ways. Comparing one of your lowest points with someone else's higher points is an invalid comparrison. Additionally, not everyone had to sacrafice and suffer to acheive success, but most do. You see the happy family at the end and you assume they were just handed that happy life. Well you know what happens when you assume. I was homeless at 14. I make good money now and my friends don't hesitate to point it out. I could have that dinner at the end, but behind it was years of sacrafice and suffering that you wouldn't see. I have scars from physical and emotional truama inflicted by people who took advantage of me, so hate me for having that dinner out of ignorance and envy.

[@sbrowne326]

I hear that. I had everything in the world and lost it all when I got in a motorcycle accident at 23. I had to relearn how to live life in its entirety. I still am working on myself and still pushing, I'm not where I want to be yet. One might think "oh you were riding that bike around like a maniac, you deserved it" but all it takes is a preoccupied woman getting her coffee at Starbucks to punch the accelerator, lose control, hit my best friend who's body literally exploded in front of me, his arm hit me in the helmet... and he protected me, he was who saved my life.. then you really might know what it's like? For as much as they try to say we are all different were all the same. Same scars same pain same loss, different periods in our lives. RIP Vinny, I love you, brother.

The lyrics of this song are so much more profound and applicable today. Empathy and tolerance seem to no longer exist.

[@pickledragonrebel]

So true. Empathy is in short supply

[@randallharvey5990]

Right

My brother introduced me to this song before he died at 17 in 1999. I always love to hear it. Dont make fun of anyone's situation because karma could put you in a worse one.

[@stevemiller4494]

Deepest condolences for the loss of your brother.... And very true.

[@jaredlaflamme354]

By far one of the best songs ever written

[@fatstax_fwg]

One of my favorite songs of all time, no matter how old I get I'll always run to this song

[@blackadderproductions2261]

This song sums up our capitalistic society perfectly. We all have opinions. And oh, what a better world it would be if we just kept our opinions and our judgements to ourselves and actually respected one another.

[@shelleykennedy876]

I agree 👍

[@shogunate2022]

You do realize what you just posted was your opinion. I am not dogging you brother. But it's a circle you cannot escape. You talk about respect for others, but by saying everyone should keep their opinions to themselves you not only disrespect them, but you are saying yours is not only the correct opinion but the only one that can or should be heard.

This song has aged well...just as good as it was back in '98.

This song brings back so many memories of when I was homeless on the streets. I'd hate for my worst enemy to go through what I've been through to hell and back. I told myself know what it was like to have lots of money that I didn't know what to do with and what it was like to have nothing but pieces of paper to eat when I was in prison. But now look back and make me strong and keeps me going. Life is a bitch, but she's mine, though

[@user-oq4ob6zm6s]

Reminds me when I had to eat 100 pieces of paper as I was getting arrested to avoid the extra huge charge 😜

Nostalgia at its best . A true 90s classic

[@nedkelly5866]

God forbid you might have to walk a mile in someone else's shoes, then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues. Love God, love your neighbour. Always be kind, always be compassionate. Don't judge others. Peace.

[@BrianCorley-ct2wd]

I have heard this song a thousand times. Always focused on the rhythm of the bass line and the meter of the vocal. Ear candy! Today I really LISTENED TO the lyric for the first time and it had me in tears. What a powerful message. This song just made it into my top 100 of all time.

Beautiful song with some sharply insightful lyrics, came across this song by accident but its getting added to my playlist right away.

[@steev927]

Ya'll are askin "why"? This is a song about empathy, walking in someone else's shoes to know how hardship feels when you don't have to personally go through it. Ev has faced death, and knows it's about "walking a mile in their shoes". Folks these days seem to judge others with no idea how it is to be someone else who didn't have all the opportunities you had. Imagine you were poor growing up, imagine you were black growing up, imagine you had health problems and everyone around you made fun of you for it. Life isn't perfect for most people, we're not all strong and favored since birth. This song is about trying to relate to people who didn't have the opportunities you might have had.

[@billgiese3631]

Not many can put themselves into someone else's shoes. To know hardships and obstacles in this world and then have clueless people belittle them even more.

imagine you were black/brown/white/asian/take your pick growing up. Fixed that for you.

[@steev927]

@@B43lzebub What, exactly, did you fix for me? I'm saying there's context and Ev is providing it for people who don't know what it's like to have it hard. That's the empathy part of my comment, "walk a mile in their shoes"... that's literally what being empathetic is.

this song was big and got a lot of radio play.. but I feel like it didn’t quite get the respect it deserved because it was a “one hit wonder” and was a late comer to the “nu-metal rap/rock” boom. It really is not just a catchy song, but a well written song.
