Hillbilly Shoes Lyrics
I was there when the men came, and told us all the news
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
Till 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 ain't seen nothing yet
Till you walk a while, a country mile
In my hillbilly shoes
In my hillbilly shoes
You work all day in the muck and the mire
Dance a little jig and a stomp by the fire
Ain't too much these boots cant do
Might even kick a little sense into you
Well I'm going up cripple creek going in a run
Going up cripple creek to have a little fun
Law man said they found some tracks
People saw them leavin' but they never come back
Oh, you don't know me, you don't know, you don't know you don't know
Till you walk a while, a country mile
In my hillbilly shoes
In my hillbilly shoes
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
Till they walk a while, a country mile
In my hillbilly shoes
You think you know me but you ain't seen nothing yet
Till you walk a while, a country mile
In my hillbilly shoes
In my hillbilly shoes
Dance a little jig and a stomp by the fire
Ain't too much these boots cant do
Might even kick a little sense into you
Going up cripple creek to have a little fun
Law man said they found some tracks
People saw them leavin' but they never come back
Till you walk a while, a country mile
In my hillbilly shoes
In my hillbilly shoes

I can't believe no one has ever wrote about this song.
It's about two men having a conversation about the hardships of being a 'hillbilly'. One man obviously being the hillbilly, the other being a city guy probably.
