1
They took a southern working man and chained him to a car
2
Claimed before the judge we didn't pull him very far
3
Anyway, he looked at us with murder in his glance
4
We want to make a bargain, and the plea is self defense
5
Look mother trouble the waters
6
We've lost our sons and daughters
7
Blame religion, blame the family
8
It had to be somebody
9
[Chorus]
10
Painless violence, daddy's silence
11
Feed the glamor of drugs and guns
12
Somebody tell me, you gotta
13
Who threw the stone to trouble the waters
14
They took a student farmer and they chained him to a post
15
And sent their finest greetings with him to the holy ghost
16
This is a place where men are men and we don't need his kind
17
We know what he planned for us, we could read his filthy mind
18
Look mother trouble the waters
19
We've lost our sons and daughters
20
Blame religion, blame the family
21
It had to be somebody
22
[Chorus]
23
They took a box of rifles and they hauled them off to school
24
Set up like a sniper in that movie that was cool
25
Someone tripped the fire alarm and panic set about
26
They looked upon their enemy and calmly took him out
27
Look mother trouble the waters
28
We've lost our sons and daughters
29
Blame religion, blame the family
30
It had to be somebody
31
[Chorus]
32
Look mother trouble the waters
33
We've lost our sons and daughters
34
Blame religion, blame the family
35
It had to be somebody
36
[Chorus]
37
Who threw the stone that trouble the waters
38
Who threw that stone
39
Who threw the stone to trouble the waters
40
Trouble the waters
