Karaoke Track: Hurricane by Bob Dylan (Legends) - Karaoke Nerds

W

Three bodies Iyin' there
does Patty see
And another man named Bello,
movin' around mysteriously

And they arrive on the scene

with their red lights flashin'
In the hot New Jersey night...

m3

Meanwhile, far away
in another part of town
Rubin Carter and a couple
of friends are drivin' around.

W

Alfred Bello had a partner
and he had a rap for the cops.
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley

were just out prowlin' around

m3

Four in the mornin'
and they haul Rubin in,
Take him to the hospital
and they bring him upstairs.

W

Four months later,

the ghettos are in flame
Rubin's in South America
fightin' for his name

W

Arthur Dexter Bradley said
I'm really not sure
Cops said a poor boy like you
could use a break

W

Rubin could take a man out
with just one punch
But he never did like to
talk about it all that much

g

W

All of Rubin's cards
were marked in advance
The trial was a pig-circus

he never had a chance.

g

And the all-white jury agreed.

m
Rubin Carter

was falsely tried.
The crime was murder one,
guess who testified

W

Now all the criminals
in their coats and their ties
Are free to drink martinis
and watch the sun rise

And give him back
the time he's done.
Put in a prison cell
but one time he couId-a been
The champion ofthe world.
