I was there when the men came, told us all the news
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
Til they walk a while, a country mile
In my Hillbilly Shoes
You want to judge me by the whiskey on my breath
You think you know me but you aint seen nothin yet
Til you walk a while, a country mile
In my Hillbilly Shoes
In my Hillbilly Shoes
You can work all day in the muck and the mire
Dance a little jig then stomp by the fire
Aint too much these boots cant do
Might even kick a little sense into you
Well Im goin up Cripple Creek, going at a run
Going up Cripple Creek to have a little fun
Lawman says they found some tracks
People saw em leaving but they never come back
Oh, you dont know me
You dont know, you dont know, you dont know
Til you walk a while, a country mile
In my Hillbilly Shoes
In my Hillbilly Shoes
