Be Careful of Stones That You Throw

[00:12.11] Oh, a tongue can accuse and carry bad news
[00:19.44] Gossip is cheap and it's lo-o-ow
[00:28.52] So unless you've made no mistakes in your life
[00:36.61] Just be careful of stones that you throw
[00:44.86] A neighbor was passin' my garden one time. She stopped and I knew
[00:52.26] right away that it was gossip,
[00:54.95] not flowers, she had on her mind. And this is what I heard
[00:59.41] my neighbor say-"You know,
[01:02.27] that girl down the street should be run from our midst. She
[01:04.92] drinks and she talks quite a lot.
[01:09.49] She knows not to speak to my child and me." My neighbor
[01:15.83] then smiled and I thought
[01:17.62] Oh, a tongue can accuse and carry bad news
[01:25.77] Gossip is cheap and it's lo-o-ow
[01:35.79] But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
[01:43.80] Be careful of stones that you throw
[01:51.11] Just then a car speeded by in the screamin' of brakes-a sound that
[01:58.32] made my blood chill. For my neighbor's one child had
[02:04.72] been pulled from the path
[02:07.40] and saved by a girl lyin' still.
[02:10.20] The child was unhurt and my neighbor cried out "Oh,
[02:13.76] who was that brave girl so sweet?
[02:18.36] " I covered the crushed broken body and said
[02:21.94] "The bad girl who lived down the street."
[02:26.41] So unless you've made no mistakes in your life
[02:34.67] Just be careful of stones that you throw
[02:44.31]
