[00:00.00]The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll - Christy Moore
[00:12.16]William Zanzinger killed Hattie Carroll
[00:16.36]
[00:17.94]With a cane that he twirled
[00:19.88]On his diamond ring finger
[00:22.72]
[00:24.05]At a Baltimore hotel society gathering
[00:29.25]
[00:30.19]The police were called in
[00:31.67]And his weapon took from him
[00:35.55]
[00:36.15]They drove him into custody down to the station
[00:40.50]
[00:42.17]Charged William Zanzinger with First Degree Murder
[00:47.19]
[00:50.16]And you who philosophise disgrace
[00:55.26]And criticise my fears
[00:58.41]Take that rag away from your face
[01:02.52]Now is not the time for your tears
[01:06.80]
[01:08.42]When William Zanzinger was 24
[01:12.45]He was farming tobacco on 600 acres
[01:16.59]With rich wealthy parents to provide and protect him
[01:20.48]High office relations in the politics of Maryland
[01:24.71]Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders
[01:28.37]With sneering and swear words his tongue it was snarling
[01:32.19]In less than 10 minutes on bail was out walking
[01:36.94]
[01:40.19]And you who philosophise disgrace
[01:45.07]And criticise my fears
[01:48.56]Take that rag away from your face
[01:52.45]Now is not the time for your tears
[01:56.22]
[01:58.29]Hattie Carroll was a maid who worked in the kitchen
[02:03.53]
[02:04.55]51 years old with 10 children
[02:08.91]
[02:10.51]She carried the dishes and took out the garbage
[02:15.24]
[02:16.55]She never once sat at the head of the table
[02:20.77]She never even spoke to the people at the table
[02:24.34]Just cleared all the food from the table
[02:28.43]And emptied ashtrays on a whole other level
[02:32.56]Killed by a blow and lay slain by a cane
[02:36.22]That sailed through the air
[02:37.97]And came down through the room
[02:40.51]Doomed and determined to destroy all that's gentle
[02:44.41]She never did nothing to William Zanzinger
[02:49.40]
[02:52.05]And you who philosophise disgrace
[02:57.06]And criticise my fears
[03:00.35]Take that rag away from your face
[03:04.37]Now is not the time for your tears
[03:07.92]
[03:14.33]At the courtroom of honour
[03:16.22]The Judge pounded his gavel
[03:18.44]
[03:20.66]To show all is equal and his court is on the level
[03:24.43]
[03:26.44]That the strings and the books are
[03:28.64]Not pulled or persuaded
[03:30.77]Even the rich get properly treated
[03:35.20]Once the cops have chased them and caught them
[03:38.63]The ladder of the law has no top and no bottom
[03:42.48]He stared at that man who had killed for no reason
[03:46.42]Who just happened to be feeling
[03:48.43]That way without warning
[03:50.47]He spoke through his cloak
[03:52.09]Most deep and distinguished
[03:54.27]And handed down strongly
[03:56.31]Form penalty and repentance
[03:58.46]Gave William Zanzinger a 6 month sentence
[04:03.57]
[04:06.41]And you who philosophise disgrace
[04:11.38]And criticise my fears
[04:14.63]Bury that rag most deep in your face
[04:18.57]Now is the time for your tears
