The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll by Bob Dylan

William Zanzinger killed poor (1)____________ Carroll
With a cane that he twirled around his diamond (2)________ finger
At a (3)__________________ hotel society gath'rin'.
And the cops were (4)____________ in and his weapon (5)________ from him
As they (6)________ him in custody (7)________ to the station
And booked William Zanzinger for first-degree murder.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag (8)________ from your face.
Now ain't the time for (9)________ tears.

William Zanzinger, who at twenty-four years
Owns a tobacco farm of six (10)______________ acres
With rich (11)______________ parents who provide and (12)______________ him
And high office relations in the politics of Maryland,
Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders
And swear (13)__________ and sneering, and his tongue it was snarling,
In a matter of minutes on bail was out walking.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag away from your face.
Now ain't the time for (14)________ tears.

Hattie Carroll was a maid of the kitchen.
She was fifty-one years old and gave birth to ten children
Who carried the (15)____________ and (16)________ out the garbage
And never sat (17)________ at the head of the table
And didn't (18)________ talk to the people at the table
Who just (19)______________ up all the food from the table
And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level,
Got killed by a blow, lay slain by a cane
That sailed through the air and came down through the room,
Doomed and determined to (20)______________ all the gentle.
And she never done nothing to William Zanzinger.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag away from your face.
Now ain't the time for your tears.

In the courtroom of honor, the judge pounded his gavel
To show that all's equal and that the courts are on the level
And that the strings in the books ain't pulled and persuaded
And that (21)________ the (22)____________ get properly handled
Once that the cops have chased (23)__________ and caught 'em
And that the (24)____________ of law has no top and no bottom,
Stared at the person who killed for no reason
Who (25)________ happened to be feelin' that way without warnin'.
And he spoke through his cloak, most deep and distinguished,
And handed out strongly, for penalty and repentance,
William (26)__________________ (27)________ a six-month sentence.
Oh, but you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Bury the rag deep in your face
For now's the time for (28)________ tears.
