    Lyrics:
    Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
    Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
    She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
    Cries out, "My God, they killed them all!"
    Here comes the story of the Hurricane
    The man the authorities came to blame
    For somethin' that he never done
    Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
    The champion of the world
    Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see
    And another man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously
    "I didn't do it, " he says, and he throws up his hands
    "I was only robbin' the register, I hope you understand
    I saw them leavin', " he says, and he stops
    "One of us had better call up the cops."
    And so Patty calls the cops
    And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'
    In the hot New Jersey night
    Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
    Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around
    Number one contender for the middleweight crown
    Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
    When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
    Just like the time before and the time before that
    In Paterson that's just the way things go
    If you're black you might as well not show up on the street
    'Less you want to draw the heat
    Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
    Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around
    He said, "I saw two men runnin' out, they looked like middleweights
    They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates."
    And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
    Cop said, "Wait a minute, boys, this one's not dead"
    So they took him to the infirmary
    And though this man could hardly see
    They told him that he could identify the guilty men
    Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in
    Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
    The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye
    Says, "Wha'd you bring him in here for? He ain't the guy!"
    Yes, here's the story of the Hurricane
    The man the authorities came to blame
    For somethin' that he never done
    Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
    The champion of the world
    Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
    Rubin's in South America, fightin' for his name
    While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game
    And the cops are puttin' the screws to him, lookin' for somebody to blame
    "Remember that murder that happened in a bar?"
    "Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"
    "You think you'd like to play ball with the law?"
    "Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that night?"
    "Don't forget that you are white."
    Arthur Dexter Bradley said, "I'm really not sure."
    Cops said, "A poor boy like you could use a break
    We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello
    Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
    You'll be doin' society a favor
    That sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver
    We want to put his ass in stir
    We want to pin this triple murder on him
    He ain't no Gentleman Jim."

      @@charliefury5810 I did have a strange incident with the 1975 Bob Dylan " Hurricane"" song (this recording) :
      On 16 April 2024 I finally remembered I heard This song version , about 10 years ago on TV in the very End of the 1999 film " The Hurricane" , and on that day (16 APRIL 2024), I FINALLY FOUND OUT THAT SONG IS NAMED " HURRICANE " by Bob Dylan (USA) in 1975 !!
      What's Strange is that song was in a Cassette tape I bought in 1996 from a Music Shop , Cassette of The Beatles album containing songs : Sha la la ; there's a place , twist and shout , etc.. ! !!!!
      This Bob Dylan song was the NEXT One after John Lennon's " Twist and Shout " and as in 1996 I Knew very Little English, Listened to The Beatles A Lot , And NEVER HEARD OF BOB DYLAN or " Hurricane" title until 16 04 2024 ; I really THOUGHT THAT THE SINGER WAS INDEED LENNON'S and the BEATLES ; And I've always wondered about being Unusually long song (about 9 mn) for a Beatles' one !
      It took me from 1996 to 2024 , to Finally find out the name of this 1975 song " Hurricane" !!
      I now (17 04 2024) Wonder why this Bob Dylan " Hurricane" recording was in a Beatles Cassette bought from a Music Shop that has other Beatles Cassetes (I also bought the Cassete containing " She loves you yeah " , Eight days a week" , " A Hard Day's Night ", etc... and there was no other's artist song there. ) !
      But is there a relation between that song & Beatles (especially John Lennon)
      ???
      Bizarre , isn't it ???

    I came across this song by mistake. I went looking for a Stephen Bishop album, found it in a second-hand store and bought it, without checking the vinyl inside. When I got home, Desire was inside. I was disappointed. My mother said 'That's Bob Dylan. He tells stories with song. You should have a listen'. 34 years later I'm still listening.

    Dylan first recorded this song in 1975, and Rubin wasn't released from prison until 1985. Respect to Dylan for singing this 10 years before the man was released. Words can't express how horrible it is for the Hurricane to spend two decades behind bars "for something he never done".

      You're talking about the Dylan of old (his voice was never better than on Desire I feel), his voice is 'shot' since 1990 and really, today he is the worst vocalist to attract many people to his show, they come out of respect, to see the 'legend', NOT for his performance which is simply staggeringly poor, unsettling even. He rapes his own songs, one has to listen very carefully to fragments of the lyrics to know what song he's raping. During one of the shows it took me minutes to realise he was doing Senor, a song of which I know the lyrics by heart. If you're unlucky he's grumpy, stands with his back to the public ... A weird man indeed. And I've seen him 6x, for I'm an admirer and collector of his music for which I'm forever indebted to the man. Greetings.

Rough and Rowdy Ways album and tour have both been critically praised, both songwriting and vocals. That is coming from critics, casuals as well as die hard fans. He literally sounds smoother and better on his most recent album than he does here so his voice is anything but shot like you claimed, have you actually been listening or are you simply restating the same garbage people have been throwing around Dylans whole career? Don't get mad when someone corrects your objectively wrong comment. Yeah I get it, your one of those intellectual lightheads who calls himself a Dylan fan and only knows Blowin in the Wind and Hurricane then shows up at a live show pissed off because he did not play precisely what you wanted even though you dummies can easily search a setlist.

      @@Rings-of-Saturn2 I'll not waste much time with die-hard fans, but will tell you this. I know a couple of hundred of the man's songs by heart, entire albums. My Dylan collection stands at over 4000 items, and both of these things are NOT something to boast about, I've just followed the man's music (not the man himself, don't know him, think he's a weirdo at best) for decades. I stand in awe of some of the music and the man's lyrical achievements, Street Legal, Basement Tapes, Blood on the Tracks, Desire, Planet Waves, Infidels, ... know the songs by heart. So I know what I talk about, although I'm not an expert, or, god forbid, a Dylanologist, hate that term. Bowie's last album was critically praised, that of Leonard Cohen, ... Not that musicians cannot make good music at old age, but many of these guys were drained before they were 40. Dylan went on to produce Time out of mind, a great album and Love and Theft thereafter. Soon followed crap such as the Christmas Album, the crooner stuff, ... I have several copies of Rough and Rowdy, hate that stuff, his voice seems to come from beyond the grave. It's upsetting, and no young person who wants to be introduced to Dylan should start with this stuff, for fear of never trying again, and missing out on great music. I once took a friend to a Dylan concert some 10 years ago, he didn't know of the man and his music, Dylan came on (his band all top musicians, Jim Keltner on drums), sang like a crow with asthma, after 15 minutes the man got up and said slowly 'That is the worst thing I've ever seen'. He left and started pacing about in the hallways until the end of the concert. I couldn't argue with him and every concert I went to, six in total, it was the same, people who did not know his music sitting in disbelief, then leaving, it's just incredible how he rapes his own songs. Tangled up in blue, my favourite song of all songs by all artists, raped, unrecognisable, sung with incredible ludicrous voice. It's how it is, nothing die-hard fans can tell me changes this. Never in a concert do you see people leave so early, and the reason is obvious, the most horrible voice in musical history. That does not take away the man's realisations, which are, to me, beyond compare in the popular music industry. Well. ....

      See the reception speech that he gave to a lovely lady to read to them. He didn't go. It had to do with the fact that a song is not just poetry or literature...you have to consider the music, too. Like a Shakespeare play, which is not only literature. Shakespeare had to think about the stage, the props, the movement of the actors, etc. Bob didn't go, but I think that he started making more money after that, which is fabulous.

      I so agree that the explicity of his lyrics hold you, educate you, taking you back you an era I hope we don't repeat. I grew up in the city, my father was a police officer and I heard many a story or similar circumstances for black people, not called that back in the day and any other person of color also had their names that were not "nice or acceptable" but people did not stand on social justice in those days and ppl spoke their minds without fear of judgement. I never felt that was okay or acceptable and I learned an early social lesson when my parents visited Montgomery, Alabama back in the mid fifties. I knew of the division of the races of course in the cities but my city did not label water fountains, restrooms, restaurants, buses or shopping areas as did Montgomery. I was shocked as a child seeing ppl step off the sidewalk for us "white folk" . That day something clicked in my brain. I marched later in life with Martin Luther Jr. and cried when he died. I have lived my life helping others and there has been absolutely no division of privileges to anyone I have met. No matter their living conditions, rich or poor. All the same in God's eyes. Could never understand going to church every Sunday and Wednesday learning about love and fairness. Then ppl would leave church and practice bigotry. I hope my life will be a testament to my grandchildren (which btw are mixed Islander race) that love is for everybody. Be colorblind people! I am white. And white ppl have suffered too however we were not picked out of a crowd and labeled. A damn shame to live in that era and my hope for the future is that we can all be treated equally. 70 some years have gone by now since that pivotal moment in my life and I have seen a lot of things. A lot of not pretty things. This song outlines how it really was and Bob does not cover it up and make it pretty. He says it like it was and decades later, still is to some degree. I listen to this song regularly and listen to the history here. No punches held back. And as said before, to this day our prisons are filled with a lot of Hurricanes.

      What's Strange is that song was in a Cassette tape I bought in 1996 from a Music Shop , Cassette of The Beatles album containing songs : Sha la la ; there's a place , twist and shout , etc.. ! !!!!
      This Bob Dylan song was the NEXT One after John Lennon's " Twist and Shout " and as in 1996 I Knew very Little English, Listened to The Beatles A Lot , And NEVER HEARD OF BOB DYLAN or " Hurricane" title until 16 04 2024 ; I really THOUGHT THAT THE SINGER WAS INDEED LENNON'S and the BEATLES ; And I've always wondered about being Unusually long song (about 9 mn) for a Beatles' one !

    I will always like you for writing this song about Rubin Carter. He died 6 years ago today. I got to meet him before his death. I never believed he did those killings and his book The 16th Round touch me deeply. He could have been thrown his life away after he was release from jail, but instead he use it to help others wrongly accused. A good man Rubin was. A good man you are Bob Dylan for writing this song and shining light on his story.

      I did have a strange incident with the 1975 Bob Dylan " Hurricane"" song (this recording) :
      On 16 April 2024 I finally remembered I heard This song version , about 10 years ago on TV in the very End of the 1999 film " The Hurricane" , and on that day (16 APRIL 2024), I FINALLY FOUND OUT THAT SONG IS NAMED " HURRICANE " by Bob Dylan (USA) in 1975 !!
      What's Strange is that song was in a Cassette tape I bought in 1996 from a Music Shop , Cassette of The Beatles album containing songs : Sha la la ; there's a place , twist and shout , etc.. ! !!!!
      This Bob Dylan song was the NEXT One after John Lennon's " Twist and Shout " and as in 1996 I Knew very Little English, Listened to The Beatles A Lot , And NEVER HEARD OF BOB DYLAN or " Hurricane" title until 16 04 2024 ; I really THOUGHT THAT THE SINGER WAS INDEED LENNON'S and the BEATLES ; And I've always wondered about being Unusually long song (about 9 mn) for a Beatles' one !
      It took me from 1996 to 2024 , to Finally find out the name of this 1975 song " Hurricane" !!
      I now (17 04 2024) Wonder why this Bob Dylan " Hurricane" recording was in a Beatles Cassette bought from a Music Shop that has other Beatles Cassetes (I also bought the Cassete containing " She loves you yeah " , Eight days a week" , " A Hard Day's Night ", etc... and there was no other's artist song there. ) !
      But is there a relation between that song & Beatles (especially John Lennon)
      ???
      Bizarre , isn't it ???

    The song is dedicated and, based around a real life event of injustice that happened to Rueben "Hurricane" Carter who was accused of murder in 1966. He served over 20 years in prison, he was released years later in 1985 after they found he was innocent all along, and was targeted by a white cop... Bob dylan and other black songwriters dedicated songs to him during his time in prison, to highlight his innocence. This is one of those song. A masterpiece and piece of history....... Trust me if you listen to Bob Dylan then you can' t possible hate black people... because he's been advocating for Black people for over 40 years. His songs are based around the civil rights, and his own creativity.

      @@michaelnickel305 Bob Dylan could only play this song in public a couple times before "The Hurricane" decided to beat the shit out of some woman.
      Guy was almost certainly guilty.
      Look into why Dylan retired this song so soon after making it.

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

    if great art is defined as being both 'timely & timeless'...then this song is definitely great art.
    "If ur black u better not show up on the street lest u wanna draw the heat'...'couldn't help but make u feel ashamed to live in a land where justice is a game...' could have been written today. In songwriting...There's Bob..then there's everyone else.
