Be Careful Of Stones That You Throw

Lyrics
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news The seeds of distrust it will sow But unless you've made no mistakes in your life Be careful of stones that you throw A neighbor was passing 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 "That bad girl down the street should be run from our midst She drinks and she talks quite a lot She knows not to speak to me or my child" My neighbor then smiled and I thought A tongue can accuse and carry bad news The seeds of distrust it will sow But unless you've made no mistakes in your life Be careful of stones that you throw A car speeded by and the screaming 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 lying 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 sad The bad girl who lived down the street
