Hank Williams Jr. - 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...



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

A tongue can accuse...
