You know there are too many people trying

To take care of others peoples business

And they can't even take care of their own

What you need to do is take six months to mind

Your own business

And six months to leave other folks business alone

All I'm trying to say is:

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

You smile in your neighbors face

And talk about them behind their back

But if you found out

They were doing the same thing to you

You know you would like that

Who are we to judge

What other people do take a look

At yourself and you could find some faults too

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

You need to sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Your always on the telphone

Puttin down on someone else

You need to take a little time stop

Look in the mirror and

Check your self

We all have sins that come short from gods glory today

So we don't have time to spread her say

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Listen

Put love in your heart

Where there is hate

You need to clean it up

I wouldn't let it be said I waited to late

Clean it up

Stop going around

Talking about your friends

Don't you know that that's a sin

How can you critise some one else

When you are doin wrong yourself

Be careful how you through stones

Because it might break up somebody's home

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

You need to take six months

To mind your own business

And take six months to leave

Other folks alone

Sweep around your own front door

Before you try to sweep around mine

Sweep around your own front door
