Chorus A [f] tongue can accuse and carry bad [c] news The [f] seeds of distrust, it will [c] sow But [f] unless you've made no mistakes in your [c] life Be careful of [g7] stones that you [c] throw.
(spoken) [c] a neighbor was passing my [f] garden one time [c] she stopped and I knew right away [g7] That it was gossip, not flowers, she had on her mind [c] And this is what I heard my neighbor say:
[c] that girl down the street [f] should be run from our midst [c] she drinks and she talks quite a lot [g7] She knows not to speak to my child or to me. [c] My neighbor then smiled and I thought:
Chorus
(spoken) 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.
