Clint Black - The Shoes You're Wearing lyrics

We've all seen enough wrong and right

To know everything's not black and white

There's always something in between

No matter how long or well you live

You don't get anything you don't give

Still no slate is clean

For better or worse, anybody can

Take a look around and find a better man

Upright no matter how he's faring

No matter what kind of shoes he's wearing

The shoes he's wearing

They don't make the man

So many people out running around

Handicapped before they hit the ground

Thinking there's nowhere to go

Shouldn't we all be looking for ways

To keep on seeing our better days

We're not chained to what we know

But if your eyes are open and your mind is free

There's no tellin' what a man can be

Upright no matter how you're faring

No matter what kind of shoes you're wearing

The shoes you're wearing

They don't make the man

But if you can't walk through the best of times

and the worst of times

Find your feet still walking the line

You'll never carry the load worth bearing

No matter what kind of shoes you're wearing

The shoes you're wearing

They won't make the man

The shoes you're wearing

They won't make the man
