Old Judge Thayer

 

Old Judge Thayer

(álbum: Ballads Of Sacco & Vanzetti - 1960)


Old Judge Thayer take your shackle off of me
Old Judge Thayer, take your shackle off of me
Turn your key and set me free
Old Judge Thayer take your shackle off of me

The monkey unlocked the courthouse door
The elephant oiled the hardwood floor
In did jump the kangaroo
In did hop the rabbits, too

Next in come the two baboons
Next in rolled a dusty storm
Next in waddled the polar bear
To keep the judge and jury warm

Everybody knows that the mocking bird
Wrote down every word he heard
The lawyers all were sly
With foxy nose and a foxy eye

The 'possum used the big stiff broom
Then he polished the new spittoon
Up did smile the crocodile
Said, "Here comes the jury down the aisle"

The old lady Catfish asked the Trout
"What is this trial all about?"
The little baby Suckerfish up and said
"The judge has caught him a couple of Reds"

The Rattlesnake asked the Bumble Bee
"Whose this Sacco and' Vanzetti?
"Are they the men," said Mammy Quail
"That shot the clerks at the Slater Mill?"

The Mosquito sung out with his wings
"I was there and saw the whole blamed thing
I saw the robbers fire their guns
But I didn't see these men, neither one"

The big-eyed Owl she looked around
"They say that Sacco's cap was found
Down on Pearl Street on the ground
Where the payroll guards both got shot down"

"That cap don't fit on Sacco's head"
A big black Crow flapped up and said
"They tried that cap on Sacco here
And it fell down around both his ears"

The Camel asked the old Giraffe
"Did these two fellows duck the draft
By running down below the Mexican line
To keep from fighting on the rich man's side?"

The limber Duck did rattle his bill
"All the ducks and Geese are flying still
Down toward Mexico's warm sun
To try to dodge the rich man's gun"

Up did waddle the Lucey Goose
"I think these men ought to be turned loose
But old Judge Thayer has swore to friends
These men will get the chair or noose"

And when the guilty verdict came
And seven years in jail they'd laid
And when these two men there did die
The animals met on the earth and sky

"Oh see what fear and greed can do
See how it killed these sons so true?
Us varmints has got to get together too
Before Judge Thayer kills me and you"
