Pistol shots ring out in the night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper
She sees a bartender in a pool of
out my God, they killed them all
Here comes the story of the
The man the authorities to blame
For somethin' he never done
Put in a prison cell, but one he could-a been
The of the world

Three bodies lyin' does Patty see
And man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously
I didn't do it, he says, and he up his hands
I was only robbin' the register, I you understand
I saw them leavin', he says, and he
One of us had call up the cops
And so Patty calls the
And they arrive on the scene with red lights flashin'
In the hot New night

Meanwhile, far away in another of town
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin'
one contender for the middleweight crown
Had no idea what shit was about to go down
a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
Just like the time before and the time before
In Paterson just the way things go
If you're black you as well not show up on the street
'Less you want to 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 white car with out-of-state
And Patty Valentine just nodded her head
Cop said, wait a minute, boys, one's not dead
So took him to the infirmary
And this man could hardly see
They told him he could identify the guilty men

Four in the mornin' and they Rubin in
They took him to the hospital and brought him upstairs
The man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, wha'd you bring him in here He ain't the guy!
Here's the story of the
The man the came to blame
For somethin' he never done
Put in a cell, but one time he could-a been
The of the world

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

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

Rubin could take a man out just one punch
But he never did to talk about it all that much
It's my work, say, and I do it for pay
And it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
Up to some
Where the streams flow and the air is nice
And ride a horse along a
But then they him to the jailhouse
Where they try to turn a man into a

All of Rubin's cards were in advance
The trial was a pig-circus, he had a chance
The judge made Rubin's drunkards from the slums
To the folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black folks he was just a crazy
No one doubted that he pulled the
And they could not produce the gun
The D.A. he was the one who did the deed
And the all-white agreed

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

Now all the criminals in their coats and their
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot
An man in a living hell
That's the story of the
But it be over till they clear his name
And give him the time he's done
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a
The champion of the
