[00:00.17]William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll
[00:05.00]With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ring finger
[00:09.96]At a Baltimore hotel society gath’rin’
[00:15.01]And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him
[00:20.03]As they rode him in custody down to the station
[00:24.62]And booked William Zanzinger for first-degree murder
[00:30.98]But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears
[00:41.74]Take the rag away from your face
[00:46.87]Now ain’t the time for your tears
[00:53.61]William Zanzinger who at twenty-four years
[00:58.83]Owns a tobacco farm of six hundred acres
[01:03.58]With rich wealthy parents who provide and protect him
[01:09.49]And high office relations in the politics of Maryland
[01:14.91]Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders
[01:20.02]And swear words and sneering and his tongue it was snarling
[01:25.92]In a matter of minutes on bail was out walking
[01:33.70]But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize fears
[01:44.73]Take the rag away from your face
[01:50.06]Now ain’t the time for your tears
[01:57.95]Hattie Carroll was a maid in the kitchen
[02:04.70]She was fifty-one years old and gave birth to ten children
[02:11.32]Who carried the dishes and took out the garbage
[02:17.49]And never sat once at the head of the table
[02:22.46]And didn’t even talk to the people at the table
[02:27.54]Who just cleaned up all the food from the table
[02:32.41]And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level
[02:37.29]Got killed by a blow lay slain by a cane
[02:42.20]That sailed through the air and came down through the room
[02:47.48]Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle
[02:51.77]And she never done nothing to William Zanzinger
[02:55.88]And you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears
[03:10.37]Take the rag away from your face
[03:15.46]Now ain’t the time for your tears
[04:09.91]In the courtroom of honor the judge pounded his gavel
[04:16.43]To show that all’s equal and that the courts are on the level
[04:22.04]And that the strings in the books ain’t pulled and persuaded
[04:26.81]And that even the nobles get properly handled
[04:31.39]Once that the cops have chased after and caught ’em
[04:35.55]And that ladder of law has no top and no bottom
[04:41.42]Stared at the person who killed for no reason
[04:45.90]Who just happened to be feelin’ that way witout warnin’
[04:51.48]And he spoke through his cloak most deep and distinguished
[04:56.36]And handed out strongly for penalty and repentance
[05:00.99]William Zanzinger with a six-month sentence
[05:08.29]Oh but you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears
[05:21.66]Bury the rag deep in your face
[05:27.00]For now’s the time for your tears
