I'ma go back, back where I came from,

Back where I came from, that's where my heart lies now, now.

I'ma go home, back where I started,

Back where I started, home's where my heart is now, now.



I'm coming to you, cause you are the only one,

You are the only one who believed in me.



Throwing stones, sticks and stones

Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)

But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)

And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.



Listen to me, I sound like an old man now,

Only the unregretful of us stay young, young.

And I've got a thousand things that I wish I hadn't done.



Like throwing stones, sticks and stones

Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)

But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)

And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.

They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.

Say them anyway.



Stones, stones, stones



They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.

Say them anyway.



Stones, sticks and stones

Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)

But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)

And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.

They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.
