00:30:40,500 (laughs) 641 00:30:40,500 --> 00:30:42,000 Once in a while one of them makes 642 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,333 a successful touch somewhere, 643 00:30:44,333 --> 00:30:46,333 and some of them get a few dollars a month 644 00:30:46,333 --> 00:30:48,367 from connections at home, 645 00:30:48,367 --> 00:30:51,000 who pay it on the condition that they never come back. 646 00:30:52,533 --> 00:30:54,700 The rest live on free lunch 647 00:30:54,700 --> 00:30:56,067 and their old friend Harry Hope, 648 00:30:56,067 --> 00:30:58,267 who doesn't give a damn what a man does 649 00:30:58,267 --> 00:30:59,900 or doesn't do, 650 00:30:59,900 --> 00:31:02,333 as long as he likes 'em. 651 00:31:02,333 --> 00:31:04,400 That must be a tough life. 652 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,867 Don't waste your pity. 653 00:31:06,867 --> 00:31:09,400 They manage to stay drunk and keep their pipe dreams, 654 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,600 and that's all they ask out of life. 655 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,100 It isn't often that men attain 656 00:31:14,100 --> 00:31:16,067 the true goal of their heart's desire. 657 00:31:18,667 --> 00:31:21,433 And that applies to Harry himself. 658 00:31:21,433 --> 00:31:23,100 He's so satisfied with life 659 00:31:23,100 --> 00:31:25,033 that he hasn't set foot out of this place 660 00:31:25,033 --> 00:31:26,767 since his wife died 20 years ago. 661 00:31:28,267 --> 00:31:30,767 He has no need of the outside world. 662 00:31:32,833 --> 00:31:34,400 Place does a fine trade from the market across the street 663 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:35,667 and the dock workers. 664 00:31:35,667 --> 00:31:37,300 So in spite of Harry's thirst 665 00:31:37,300 --> 00:31:40,200 and his generous heart, he comes out even. 666 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,767 He never worries about hard times, 667 00:31:42,767 --> 00:31:44,267 as long as there's friends from the old days 668 00:31:44,267 --> 00:31:46,333 when he was a jitney Tammany politician 669 00:31:46,333 --> 00:31:48,533 and the friendly brewery that tied him over. 670 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,400 Pat McGloin, his pal sitting beside him, 671 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,700 was a police lieutenant in the lush times of graft, 672 00:31:54,700 --> 00:31:56,367 when everything went, 673 00:31:56,367 --> 00:31:58,400 but he got too greedy. 674 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,033 And when the usual reform investigation came along, 675 00:32:01,033 --> 00:32:02,367 he was caught red handed 676 00:32:02,367 --> 00:32:04,233 and thrown off the force. 677 00:32:04,233 --> 00:32:07,333 Joe there ran a colored gambling house, and, 678 00:32:07,333 --> 00:32:09,100 was a hell of a sport. 679 00:32:09,100 --> 00:32:10,933 (laughs) 680 00:32:10,933 --> 00:32:13,833 Well, that completes our family circle of inmates, 681 00:32:13,833 --> 00:32:16,400 except for the two barkeeps and their girls, 682 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,367 three ladies of the pavement that room on the third floor. 683 00:32:19,367 --> 00:32:21,167 I never wanna see a whore again. 684 00:32:24,300 --> 00:32:26,833 I mean, they always get you in dutch. 685 00:32:26,833 --> 00:32:28,300 Why omit me from your. 686

00:32:35,367 --> 00:32:37,433 I trust you're generous. 690 00:32:37,433 --> 00:32:39,767 I was born in the purple, 691 00:32:39,767 --> 00:32:41,700 the son... hmm, 692 00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:44,200 but unfortunately not the heir of the late world-famous. 693 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,467 Bill Oban, 694 00:32:46,467 --> 00:32:48,167 king of the bucket shops. 695 00:32:49,833 --> 00:32:51,167 A revolution deposed him, 696 00:32:51,167 --> 00:32:53,333 he was sent into exile. 697 00:32:53,333 --> 00:32:55,200 The fact, not to mince matters, 698 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,633 (giggling) 699 00:32:56,633 --> 00:32:58,767 they locked him in the can and threw away the key. 700 00:33:01,133 --> 00:33:02,600 Alas, 701 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,400 his was an adventurous spirit 702 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,000 that pined in confinement... 703 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:08,367 and so he died! 704 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,467 That's tough luck. 705 00:33:12,467 --> 00:33:14,067 Hmm, hmm. 706 00:33:15,867 --> 00:33:18,933 Even in Harvard I discovered my father was... 707 00:33:18,933 --> 00:33:20,933 well known by reputation. 708 00:33:20,933 --> 00:33:23,400 Although that was sometime before 709 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,600 the district attorney gave him 710 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,267 so much unwelcomed publicity. 711 00:33:27,267 --> 00:33:30,167 Even as a freshman, I was notorious. 712 00:33:30,167 --> 00:33:32,167 I was accepted socially, 713 00:33:32,167 --> 00:33:34,500 with all the warm cordiality that, uh, 714 00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:36,400 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 715 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,067 who could've shown a drunken Negress 716 00:33:38,067 --> 00:33:39,900 dancing the can can at high noon 717 00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:41,567 on Brattle Street. 718 00:33:43,900 --> 00:33:46,033 Harvard was my father's idea. 719 00:33:49,233 --> 00:33:52,000 But I did make myself a brilliant student! 720 00:33:54,567 --> 00:33:56,767 A dirty trick on my classmates... 721 00:33:58,067 --> 00:34:00,700 inspired by revenge, I fear. 722 00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:02,367 And I, I, I was a brilliant student 723 00:34:02,367 --> 00:34:05,233 in Law School, too! 724 00:34:05,233 --> 00:34:07,067 And my father 725 00:34:07,067 --> 00:34:09,233 wanted a lawyer in the family. 726 00:34:09,233 --> 00:34:11,967 Oh, a thorough knowledge of the law 727 00:34:11,967 --> 00:34:14,133 close at hand in the house, 728 00:34:14,133 --> 00:34:16,400 to help him find fresh ways to evade it. 729 00:34:20,233 --> 00:34:22,133 But I discovered 730 00:34:22,133 --> 00:34:23,867 a loophole in whiskey. 731 00:34:23,867 --> 00:34:25,367 And so, 732 00:34:25,367 --> 00:34:27,700 escaped his jurisdiction. 733 00:34:27,700 --> 00:34:30,367 Speaking of whiskey, sir, reminds me, 734 00:34:30,367 --> 00:34:33,433 and I hope reminds you, 735 00:34:33,433 --> 00:34:35,867 that when greeting a prince, 736 00:34:35,867 --> 00:34:38,833 the customary salutation is "What'll you have?" 737 00:34:38,833 --> 00:34:40,033 Nix! 738 00:34:40,033 --> 00:34:42,133 All you guys think I'm made of dough! 739 00:34:42,133 --> 00:34:43,967 Broke? 740 00:34:43,967 -->

"How I got it"? 746 00:35:00,133 --> 00:35:01,533 That's a laugh, isn't it, Larry? 747 00:35:01,533 --> 00:35:04,433 Him thinking me a plutocrat? 748 00:35:04,433 --> 00:35:06,567 When I've been in the Movement all my life? 749 00:35:08,133 --> 00:35:10,633 Ah, one of those, eh? 750 00:35:10,633 --> 00:35:12,700 Why don't you go away and blow yourself up? 751 00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:15,100 That's

A beautiful old New England folk ballad, 769 00:35:54,867 --> 00:35:57,633 which I'd picked at Harvard amid de debris of education. 770 00:35:59,467 --> 00:36:00,767 * Oh 771 00:36:00,767 --> 00:36:03,300 * Jack oh Jack was a sailor lad * 772 00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:06,133 * And he went to a tavern for gin * 773 00:36:06,133 --> 00:36:08,200 * And he rapped and he rapped with a * 774

beautiful ditty 778 00:36:17,633 --> 00:36:19,100 is veiled in mystery, Larry. 779 00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:20,600 There was a legend bruited about 780 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,433 in Cambridge lavatories 781 00:36:23,433 --> 00:36:25,867 that Waldo Emerson composed it 782 00:36:25,867 --> 00:36:28,100 during his uninformative period as a minister 783 00:36:28,100 --> 00:36:29,767 while he was trying to write a sermon. 784 00:36:29,767 --> 00:36:31,733 But my own view 785 00:36:31,733 --> 00:36:34,200 is that it goes back much further, 786 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,700 and Jonathan Edwards is the author of both words 787 00:36:36,700 --> 00:36:38,567 and the music. 788 00:36:38,567 --> 00:36:41,033 * Oh he rapped and rapped * 789 00:36:41,033 --> 00:36:42,533 * And he tapped and
