Hurricane (Vocal Version) (Originally Performed by Bob Dylan) - Mega Tracks Karaoke Band[00:00:00]
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night[00:00:14]
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall[00:00:18]
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood[00:00:22]
Cries out[00:00:25]
My god they killed them all[00:00:26]
Here comes the story of the Hurricane[00:00:29]
The man the authorities came to blame[00:00:32]
For somethin' that he never done[00:00:36]
Put in a prison cell but one time he could been[00:00:40]
The champion of the world[00:00:44]
Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see[00:00:56]
And another man named Bello movin' around mysteriously[00:00:59]
I didn't do it he says and he throws up his hands[00:01:03]
I was only robbin' the register I hope you understand[00:01:06]
I saw them leavin' he says and he stops[00:01:10]
One of us had better call up the cops[00:01:13]
And so Patty calls the cops[00:01:17]
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'[00:01:21]
In the hot New Jersey night[00:01:25]
Meanwhile far away in another part of town[00:01:37]
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around[00:01:40]
Number one contender for the middleweight crown[00:01:44]
Had no idea what kinda sh*t was about to go down[00:01:47]
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road[00:01:51]
Just like the time before and the time before that[00:01:55]
In Paterson that's just the way things go[00:01:58]
If you're black you might as well not show up on the street[00:02:01]
'Less you want to draw the heat[00:02:06]
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops[00:02:18]
Him and arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around[00:02:21]
He said I saw two men runnin' out they looked like middleweights[00:02:25]
They jumped into a white car with out of state plates[00:02:29]
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head[00:02:32]
Cop said[00:02:36]
Wait a minute boys this one's not dead[00:02:36]
So they took him to the infirmary[00:02:39]
And though this man could hardly see[00:02:43]
They told him that he could identify the guilty men[00:02:45]
Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in[00:02:59]
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs[00:03:02]
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye[00:03:06]
Says wha'd you bring him in here for[00:03:09]
He ain't the guy[00:03:11]
Yes here's the story of the Hurricane[00:03:14]
The man the authorities came to blame[00:03:17]
For somethin' that he never done[00:03:21]
Put in a prison cell but one time he could been[00:03:24]
The champion of the world[00:03:28]
Four months later the ghettos are in flame[00:03:41]
Rubin's in South America fightin' for his name[00:03:44]
While arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game[00:03:48]
And the cops are puttin' the screws to him lookin' for somebody to blame[00:03:51]
Remember that murder that happened in a bar[00:03:55]
Remember you said you saw the getaway car[00:03:58]
You think you'd like to play ball with the law[00:04:02]
Think it might been that fighter[00:04:05]
That you saw runnin' that night[00:04:07]
Don't forget that you are white[00:04:10]
Arthur Dexter Bradley said I'm really not sure[00:04:21]
Cops said a poor boy like you could use a break[00:04:25]
We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello[00:04:28]
Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail be a nice fellow[00:04:32]
You'll be doin' society a favor[00:04:36]
That sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver[00:04:40]
We want to put his a** in stir[00:04:43]
We want to pin this triple murder on him[00:04:47]
He ain't no gentleman Jim[00:04:51]
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch[00:05:03]
But he never did like to talk about it all that much[00:05:06]
It's my work he'd say and I do it for pay[00:05:10]
And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way[00:05:13]
Up to some paradise[00:05:17]
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice[00:05:20]
And ride a horse along a trail[00:05:24]
But then they took him to the jailhouse[00:05:28]
Where they trialed a man into a mouse[00:05:31]
All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance[00:05:44]
The trial was a pig circus he never had a chance[00:05:47]
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums[00:05:51]
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum[00:05:54]
And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger[00:05:58]
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger[00:06:02]
And though they could not produce the gun[00:06:05]
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed[00:06:09]
And the all white jury agreed[00:06:13]
Rubin Carter was falsely tried[00:06:25]
The crime was murder one guess who testified[00:06:29]
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied[00:06:32]
And the newspapers they all went along for the ride[00:06:36]
How can the life of such a man[00:06:39]
Be in the palm of some fool's hand[00:06:43]
To see him obviously framed[00:06:46]
Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land[00:06:50]
Where justice is a game[00:06:55]
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties[00:07:06]
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise[00:07:10]
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell[00:07:13]
An innocent man in a living hell[00:07:17]
That's the story of the Hurricane[00:07:21]
But it won't be over till they clear his name[00:07:24]
And give him back the time he's done[00:07:28]
Put in a prison cell but one time he could been[00:07:31]
The champion of the world[00:07:36]
