waylon jennings-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 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 or to me.” my neighbor then smiled and i thought: a car speeded by and 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 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 said “the bad girl who lived down the street.”
