[00:00:00] Hattie Carroll (Live) - Christy Moore

[00:00:01] Written by：Bob Dylan

[00:00:16] William Zanzinger killed Hattie Carroll

[00:00:21] With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ring finger

[00:00:27] At a baltimore hotel society gath'rin'

[00:00:32] And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him

[00:00:38] As they rode him in custody down to the station

[00:00:43] And booked William Zanzinger for first degree murder

[00:00:51] And you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears

[00:00:59] Take the rag away from your face

[00:01:02] Now ain't the time for your tears

[00:01:08] When William Zanzinger who at twenty four years

[00:01:12] Owns a tobacco farm of six hundred acres

[00:01:16] With rich wealthy parents who provide and protect him

[00:01:19] And high office relations in the politics of Maryland

[00:01:23] Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders

[00:01:27] And swear words and sneering and his tongue it was snarling

[00:01:31] In less than ten minutes on bail was out walking

[00:01:38] And you who philosophize disgrace criticize my fears

[00:01:46] Take the rag away from your face

[00:01:50] Now ain't the time for your tears

[00:01:56] Hattie Carroll was a maid do walked them the kitchen

[00:02:02] Fifty one years old and gave birth to ten children

[00:02:07] She carried the dishes and took out the garbage

[00:02:11] She never once sat at the head of the table

[00:02:15] She never even talk to the people at the table

[00:02:19] Just sinsi cleaned up all the food from the table

[00:02:23] And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level

[00:02:26] Killed by a blow lay slain by a cane

[00:02:30] That sailed through the air and came down through the room

[00:02:34] Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle

[00:02:38] She never done nothing to William Zanzinger

[00:02:46] And you who philosophize disgrace criticize my fears

[00:02:53] Take the rag away from your face

[00:02:57] Now ain't the time for your tears

[00:03:03] In the courtroom of honor the judge pounded his gavel

[00:03:09] To show that all's equal and

[00:03:11] That the courts are on the level

[00:03:15] And that the strings in the books ain't pulled and persuaded

[00:03:18] And that even the rich take at

[00:03:21] Nobles get properly handled

[00:03:22] Once that the cops have chased after and caught 'em

[00:03:26] And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom

[00:03:30] Stared at the man who killed for no reason

[00:03:34] Who just happened to be feelin' that way without warnin'

[00:03:37] He spoke through his cloak most deep and distinguished

[00:03:41] And handed out strongly for penalty and repentance

[00:03:45] Gave William Zanzinger with a six month sentence

[00:03:53] Oh but you who philosophize disgrace criticize my fears

[00:04:00] Bury the rag most deep in your face

[00:04:04] And now's the time for your tears
