they come to me and they start to cry

they say take this sword i say thanks a lot
but i do allright with this sling i got
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone gimme a stone
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone
stone that i can hold
stone that i can throw
someone gimme a stone someone gimme a stone
never had to fight such a real big man
just gimme a stone and i'll do what i can
see how he laughs when i put out his eye
and there he'll fall and there he'll die
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone gimme a stone
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone
stone that i can hold
stone that i can throw
someone gimme a stone someone gimme a stone
absalom absalom
would i die for you my son
i would have it all undone
the way it all came down
when i look at you my son
i see myself when i was your
saddest thing i ever done
was put you in the ground
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone gimme a stone
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone
stone that i can hold
stone that i can throw
someone gimme a stone someone gimme a stone
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone gimme a stone
someone gimme a stone gimme a stone
stone that i can hold
stone that i can throw
someone gimme a stone someone gimme a stone
