Music Monday – “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 even the nobles get properly handled/Once that the cops have chased after and caught ’em/And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom”

This is a song about a farmer who was convicted of manslaughter after accidentally killing someone.

The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll” – Bob Dylan
