The battle lines have been draw
Comin' home at the break of dawn
Hot nights I should have known
Talkin' to your mama on the telephone
CHORUS
I've been cruel and I've been mean
This woman's got the best of me
Don't stone me now
Don't stone me now
Heartaches and slammin' doors
Sortin' out the victims of a holy war
We've gone wrong I must confess
All I ever see is just complete unrest
CHORUS
I've been feeling like a refugee
I'm just a little blind to see
Don't stone me now
Don't stone me now
Dream on and make believe
I never really asked for any sympathy
Love hurts and hearts cry
I guess I never thought that we should say goodbye
CHORUS
Time passed and we learned
Every single time we burn
Don't stone me now
Don't stone me now
