Put in aprison cell|but one time
He could"ve been|the champion ofthe world
Nowall the criminals|in their coats andtheir ties
Are free to drinkmartinis|and watch thesun rise
While Rubin sits like Buddha|in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a living hell
Yes, that"s thestory|ofThe Hurricane
But it won"t be over|till they clearhis name
Andgive him back|the time he"s done
Put in aprison cell|but one time
He could"ve been|the champion ofthe world
