The Brethren came to Jesus
With a woman taken in sin
With stones in hand, they had a plan
To do this woman in
But as though Jesus heard them not
He stooped down on the ground
And scratched out a silent sermon
That made 'em put their weapons down

Go ahead and throw
If you are a sinless man
Go on and throw
And do exactly what you planned
But make sure he who is without sin
Strikes the very first blow
Don’t just stand there
No, go ahead and throw

I've witnessed a lot of murders
Along my Christian walk
But they were never done
With a knife or gun
All it took was a little talk
I can't understand
What would make a man
Want to run down another man’s name
This tongue is a little bitty member
But it kindles a great big flame
Go ahead and throw
If you are a sinless man
Go on and throw
And do exactly what you planned
But make sure he who is without sin
Strikes the very first blow
Don't just stand there
No, go ahead and throw

Go ahead and throw
(Now go on, go on and throw)
If you are a sinless man
(Go on and throw, throw, go on)
Go on and throw
(Now go on, go on, go on and throw)
And do exactly what you planned
But make sure he who is without sin
Strikes the very first blow
Don't just stand there
No, go ahead and throw
Don't just stand there
Go ahead and throw
