They come to me and they start to cry
Say ya gotta do something about that guy
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
