Lyrics
STICKS AND STONES
SHE COULDN?T GET HERSELF TO SLEEP AT NIGHT
COULDN?T TURN OFF HER BEDROOM LIGHT
THE THINGS THAT BOYS CAN SAY CAN BE SO MEAN
LIFE IS HARD FOR THE LESS THAN PERFECT
YOU TRY TO FIT IN BUT IT JUST AINT WORTH IT
IF YOU WEREN'T MADE FOR THE COVER OF A MAGAZINE
SO EVERYNIGHT, HER MAMA SANG
CHORUS:
THE RAIN MAY FALL AND THE WINDS MAY BLOW
A SPRING DAY TURN TO A BLINDING SNOW
OH, THE WEATHER MAY CHANGE; BUT STILL YOU KNOW
YOU?LL NEVER WALK ALONE
NOW, GET BACK ON THAT PONY AND RIDE
DON?T YOU DARE TRY TO RUN AND HIDE
CAUSE YOU KNOW YOUR BEAUTY INSIDE IS THE GREATEST THING YOU OWN
SO, NEVER YOU MIND THOSE STICKS AND STONES
LATER IN LIFE SHE LEARNED TO LOVE HERSELF
WORKING WITH KIDS THAT NEED A LITTLE MORE HELP
SHE TAUGHT THEM SO MUCH THAN THEIR ABC?s
THE BEAUTY INSIDE CAME THROUGH
IN EVERY CHILD THAT SHE KNEW
WITH THIS SONG, IT GAVE THEM SOMETHING TO BELEIVE
EVERY DAY SHE WOULD SING...
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
STANDING IN HER DOOR, HOW LIFE COMES AROUND
IT WAS THE BOY WHO CAUSED HER SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
THERE WITH HIS SON ON HIS FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
NOW WISHING HE HAD TREATED HER RIGHT
SHE TOOK THAT LITTLE BOY IN HER ARMS...AND SAID:
CHORUS
