(So be careful of stones that you throw) |
|
Oh, a tongue can accuse and carry bad news |
|
Gossip is cheap and it's lo-o-ow |
|
So unless you've made no mistakes in your life |
|
Just be careful of stones that you throw |
|
SPOKEN: A neighbor was passin' my garden one time. She stopped and I |
|
knew |
|
right away that it was gossip, not flowers, she had on her mind. And |
|
this is what I |
|
heard my neighbor say-\"You know, that girl down the street should be run |
|
from our |
|
midst. She drinks and she talks quite a lot. She knows not to speak to |
|
my child |
|
and me.\" My neighbor then smiled and I thought |
|
Oh, a tongue can accuse and carry bad news |
|
Gossip is cheap and it's lo-o-ow |
|
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life |
|
Be careful of stones that you throw |
|
SPOKEN: Just then a car speeded by in the screamin' of brakes-a sound |
|
that |
|
made my blood chill. For my neighbor's one child had been pulled from |
|
the path |
|
and saved by a girl lyin' still. The child was unhurt and my neighbor |
|
cried out \"Oh, |
|
who was that brave girl so sweet?\" I covered the crushed broken body |
|
and said |
|
\"The bad girl who lived down the street.\" |
|
So unless you've made no mistakes in your life |
|
Just be careful of stones that you throw |
