Be Careful of Stones That You Throw - The Staple Singers[00:00:00]
Written by:B. Dodd[00:00:00]
So be careful of stones that you throw[00:00:04]
Oh a tongue can accuse[00:00:13]
And carry bad news[00:00:17]
Gossip is cheap and it's lo-o-ow[00:00:22]
So unless you've made[00:00:29]
No mistakes in your life[00:00:33]
Just be careful of stones that you throw[00:00:38]
A neighbor was passing my garden one time[00:00:47]
She stopped and I knew[00:00:51]
Right away that it was gossip[00:00:52]
Not flowers[00:00:55]
She had on her mind[00:00:56]
And this is what I heard[00:00:58]
My neighbor say[00:00:59]
You know[00:01:02]
That girl down the street[00:01:02]
Should be run from our midst[00:01:04]
She drinks and she talks quite a lot[00:01:06]
She knows not to[00:01:10]
Speak to my child and me[00:01:11]
My neighbor[00:01:14]
Then smiled and I thought[00:01:15]
Oh a tongue can accuse[00:01:18]
And carry bad news[00:01:23]
Gossip is cheap[00:01:27]
Cheap and it's lo-o-ow[00:01:31]
So unless you've made[00:01:35]
Unless you've made[00:01:37]
No mistakes in your life[00:01:39]
Just be careful[00:01:44]
Of stones that you throw[00:01:46]
Just then a speeded car pass by[00:01:54]
And the screaming of brakes-a sound that[00:01:58]
Made my blood chill[00:02:01]
For my neighbor's one child[00:02:03]
Had been pulled from the path[00:02:05]
And saved by a girl lying still[00:02:07]
The child was unhurt and[00:02:11]
My neighbor cried out Oh[00:02:13]
Who was that brave girl so sweet[00:02:16]
I covered the crushed[00:02:20]
Broken body and said[00:02:21]
The bad girl who lived down the street[00:02:23]
Unless you've made[00:02:28]
No mistakes in your life[00:02:30]
Just be careful of stones[00:02:34]
That you throw[00:02:39]
