Luyện nghe bài hát Hurricane

Pistol ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine the upper hall
She a bartender in a pool of blood
out my God, they killed them all
Here the story of the Hurricane
The man the came to blame
For that he never done
Put in a prison cell, but one time he been
The of the world

Three lyin' there does Patty see
And man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously
I do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
I was only robbin' the register, I hope you
I saw leavin', he says, and he stops
One of us had better call up the
And so Patty calls the
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights
In the hot New Jersey

Meanwhile, far away in another part of
Rubin Carter and a of friends are drivin' around
Number one contender for the crown
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the
Just like the time before and the time before
In Paterson that's the way things go
If you're black you as well not show up on the street
'Less you to draw the heat

Alfred had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were out prowlin' around
He said, I saw two men runnin' out, looked like middleweights
They into a white car with out-of-state plates
And Miss Patty Valentine just her head
Cop said, wait a minute, boys, this one's not
So they him to the infirmary
And though this man could see
They told him that he could the guilty men

Four in the mornin' and they haul in
They took him to the hospital and brought him upstairs
The man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, wha'd you bring him in here for? He the guy!
Here's the story of the
The man the authorities to blame
For that he never done
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a
The of the world

Four later, the ghettos are in flame
Rubin's in America, fightin' for his name
While Arthur Dexter Bradley's in the robbery game
And the cops are the screws to him, lookin' for somebody to blame
Remember that murder that in a bar
Remember you said you saw the car
You think like to play ball with the law
Think it might-a been that that you saw runnin' that night
Don't forget that you are

Arthur Dexter said I'm really not sure
The cops said a poor boy you could use a break
We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend
You don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a fellow
You'll be doin' society a
That sonofabitch is brave and braver
We want to put his ass in
We want to pin triple murder on him
He ain't no Jim

Rubin could take a man out with one punch
But he did like to talk about it all that much
It's my work, say, and I do it for pay
And when it's over I'd just as go on my way
Up to some
Where the streams flow and the air is nice
And a horse along a trail
But then took him to the jailhouse
Where they try to turn a man a mouse

All of Rubin's cards were marked in
The was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards the slums
To the white folks who he was a revolutionary bum
And to the folks he was just a crazy nigger
No one doubted that he pulled the
And though they could not the gun
The D.A. he was the one who did the deed
And the all-white agreed

Rubin Carter was tried
The crime was murder one, guess who
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly
And the newspapers, they all went for the ride
How can the life of a man
Be in the palm of fool's hand
To see him framed
help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a

Now all the criminals in their coats and their
Are to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
While Rubin sits Buddha in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a hell
That's the story of the
But it won't be over they clear his name
And give him back the he's done
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a
The of the world
