Luyện nghe bài hát Hurricane

Pistol shots ring out in the night
Enter Patty Valentine from the hall
She sees a in a pool of blood
Cries out my God, they them all
Here comes the of the Hurricane
The man the authorities came to
For somethin' that he done
Put in a cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the

Three lyin' there does Patty see
And another man named Bello, movin' mysteriously
I didn't do it, he says, and he up his hands
I was only robbin' the register, I you understand
I saw leavin', he says, and he stops
One of us had better call up the
And so Patty the cops
And arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'
In the hot New night

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

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

Four in the mornin' and haul Rubin in
They took him to the hospital and they him upstairs
The man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, wha'd you bring him in here He ain't the guy!
Here's the of the Hurricane
The man the authorities to blame
For somethin' that he never
Put in a prison cell, but one time he been
The champion of the

Four months later, the 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 that happened in a bar
Remember you you saw the getaway car
You think you'd like to ball with the law
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that
forget that you are white

Arthur Dexter Bradley I'm really not sure
The cops said a poor boy like you could use a
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' a favor
sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver
We to put his ass in stir
We to pin this triple murder on him
He no Gentleman Jim

could take a man out with just one punch
But he never did like to about it all that much
It's my work, say, and I do it for pay
And it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
Up to some
Where the trout streams and the air is nice
And ride a along a trail
But then they took him to the
Where they try to a man into a mouse

All of Rubin's were marked in advance
The was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
The judge made Rubin's witnesses from the slums
To the white folks who he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black 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 jury

Rubin Carter was falsely
The crime was murder one, who testified
and Bradley and they both baldly lied
And the newspapers, they all along for the ride
How can the life of a man
Be in the palm of some hand
To see him obviously
help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where is a game

Now all the criminals in their coats and ties
Are free to drink martinis and the sun rise
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a cell
An innocent man in a living
the story of the Hurricane
But it won't be over till clear his name
And give him back the time he's
Put in a prison cell, but one time he been
The champion of the
