Scottsboro Boys, The movie - Zat So? lyrics

rate me

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

(To HAYWOOD.) The Governor of Alabama will see you now in his chambers. Well, don’t make the Governor wait.

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

MR. PATTERSON, I UNDERSTAND

YOU WISH TO CONFESS

TO THIS TERRIBLE CRIME

ZAT SO?

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

SAY YES.

HAYWOOD

NO!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

Mr. Patterson. I don’t think you heard me correctly. You people sometimes don’t understand what you’ve been asked. It’s

because you don’t listen. So let’s try this again.

YOU NOW ADMIT

YOU COMMITTED THIS RAPE

WHICH YOU’VE BEEN DENYING ALL ALONG

ZAT RIGHT?

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

THAT’S RIGHT

HAYWOOD

WRONG

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

Haywood, what are you doing?!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

NOW BOY

IT’S INCREASINGLY CLEAR

YOU DON’T COMPREHEND

EXACTLY WHAT’S HAPPENING HERE

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

What’s happening is you’re gonna rot in jail!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE

THIS IS THE VERY LAST TIME

I ASK IF YOU’RE GUILTY

OF COMMITTING THIS HORRIBLE CRIME

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

Say yes!

Say yes!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

Say yes!

HAYWOOD

NO!

NO!

NO!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

YOU LEAVE ME BOY NO OTHER COURSE

YOU’RE BELLIGERENT, WITHOUT REMORSE

YOU’RE TELLING ME YOU NEVER WILL CONFESS?

ZAT SO?

SAMUEL LEIBOWITZ (MR. BONES)

SAY NO!

SAY NO!

HAYWOOD

YES!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

There goes your freedom, son! There goes your freedom!

HAYWOOD

IT AIN’T FOR YOU TO SAY I’M FREE

IN MY MIND

IN MY MIND

IN MY OWN MIND

I’M FREE! I’M FREE! I’M FREE!

GOVERNOR (INTERLOCUTOR)

You’re not free! The truth is, Haywood, you’re going back to jail for a very long time. Any final words?
