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

Hey, man, it"s cold out here.

What are you talkin" about?|It"s like summer for us.

Yeah, well, I like the summers|in Brooklyn better.

Is all these people out here|freezing their butts off to buy books?

- That"s right.|- Lined up like this...

not for a movie|or a ball game or somethin"?

- Ain"t it great?|- No, ""isn"t it."" ""Isn"t it great?""

Very good.|I stand corrected, Les.

Used books,|books nobody wants any more.

Aw, that"s the great thing|about books, you know.

Once you use "em, you can pass "em|along to somebody else like a torch...

or a football,|you know, something you pass.

Okay, bring it on in.

Put it down.|Good, good. Down.

Okay, young man,|that"ll be 25 cents.

-Jesus.|- Twenty-five cent?

Mustn"t be much ofa book.

- Ah, listen, everybody|- Everybody

Especiallyyou, girl

So, Lesra, what"d you get?

Uh, this.

- What is it?|- I don"t know. It"s about a boxer.

It"s got like 337 pages,|though, you know.

Well, it probably takes a lot ofwords|to tell someone"s life story, eh?

- Don"t you think?|- Yeah, well, this guy must be...

like 1 50 years old, you know,|if he gon" use all these words.

You know what, Les? Sometimes|we don"t pick the books we read.

- They pick us.|- Somebody, somewhere

- ltellyou, it"s unfair|- Can lgetsome whisky

Can lgetsome whisky|Yeah

No, I don"t thinkyou do see,|Mr Broden.

They are my business partners|and my roommates.

And you"re the Department|of Education...

and you"re telling me you"re prepared|to stop this young man"s education...

because you can"t fi nd|some goddam high school records?

Yep, that"s exactly|what I"m doing, Mr Broden.

No, no, I"m not asking you|to make an exception.

I"m asking you to do yourjob,|which is qualitatively different...

but I thankyou for it anyway.
