Benjamin Gilbreath - Stone Casting Blues Lyrics

Down in a ditch by the road
I count the days as they go
Stacking the bricks on their graves
Passing the bodies there laid
And I see, I see no wrong
In casting the stone in my name
Looking around I can see all their faces
If gun doesn't murder, let gavel erase us
But let me be first to the throne
Don't you regret how you knew
That everyone's gone except you
You can't take the blame for the gun
You cannot repay what was done
And I see, I see no wrong
In casting the stone for my son
And in this world we have sorrows
And in this world there is pain
And in this world we remain
High on a hill where they stand
Washing the blood from their hands
Choose you a scapegoat to fall
And no one will hear if they call
And I see, I see no wrong
In casting the stone for us all
In casting the stone for us all
In casting the stone
In casting the stone for us all
