Shaggy Lyrics

Album: Lucky Day

Walking In My Shoes Lyrics

Yo, this one goes out 

to all my immigrants who live

Live up, don't give up


Wait a minute let me set the record straight

You need to listen for a moment or two

Hear the accent don't get it twisted

My momma didn't raise no fool

Though you think that you got it figured out

Well, really, I don't got a clue

So take a lesson from this island boy

This coconut maybe smarter than you

So i say


Chorus

Don't judge me

You dont know me

Don't think i'm some small town phony

Got nothing, upon me

You ain't walking in my shoes

I'm just one out of many

Living from a third-world country

Got nothing, upon me

You ain't walking in my shoes

Learnt my lessons from a humble beginning

And i wouldn't have it no other way

Became a man in the street of Kingston Bay

So far it was just the other day

Choose the best as my main competition

And i'm always at the top of my game

So don't be blinded by my race or my gender

Cuz all i wanted to say

So i say

Repeat chorus

No i won't stop

Gotta make it to the top

Hell no i won't stop

Even for the sweet spot

House to the bald-heads and the dread-locks

Lemme make it clear

No we won't flop

Got a plan, gotta make anyway

Can put it on the work, with my own two hands

Gotta check it, respect it

I'm a man, i'm a West-Indian

Repeat Chorus
