ONCE AGAIN, ITS TIME TO WISH YOU A PLEASANT EVENING & GOOD NIGHT . . . and heres my much loved country singer with a timely word of caution... which I wish I had heeded during my teen years before I started throwing stones ... youtu.be/6U-H3hPYBmA LYRICS: A tongue can accuse and carry bad news The seeds of distrust it will sow But unless youve 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 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 youve 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 neighbors 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 A tongue can accuse and carry bad news The seeds of distrust it will sow But unless youve made no mistakes in your life Be careful of stones that you throw
