Luyện nghe bài hát Hurricane

Pistol shots out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the hall
She sees a bartender in a pool of
out my God, they killed them all
Here the story of the Hurricane
The man the came to blame
For somethin' that he done
Put in a prison cell, but one he could-a been
The of the world

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

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

Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out around
He said, I saw two men out, they looked like middleweights
They jumped into a car with out-of-state plates
And Miss Patty Valentine just her head
Cop said, wait a minute, boys, this not dead
So they took him to the
And though 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 brought him upstairs
The wounded man looks up through his one eye
Says, wha'd you bring him in here He ain't the guy!
Here's the story of the
The man the authorities came to
For somethin' that he never
Put in a cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the

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

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

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

All of Rubin's cards were in advance
The was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the
To the folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black folks he was just a nigger
No one doubted he pulled the trigger
And though they not produce the gun
The D.A. he was the one who did the deed
And the jury agreed

Rubin was falsely tried
The crime was one, guess who testified
Bello and Bradley and they both lied
And the newspapers, they all along for the ride
How can the of such a man
Be in the of some fool's hand
To see him obviously
Couldn't help but me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a

Now all the in their coats and their ties
Are free to drink martinis and the sun rise
While Rubin sits like in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a hell
the story of the Hurricane
But it won't be over till they his name
And give him back the time he's
Put in a cell, but one time he could-a been
The of the world
