Bob Dylan - Hurricane

Posted about 4 years ago
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom nightEnter 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 blameFor somethin that he never done.Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a beenThe champion of the world.

    deadmandeadman says A very interesting, frustrating list. Every song belongs, of course, but our top tens are radically different.

    Hammerogod says Don't worry deadman......my top 10 list will change with the passage of time. I am willing to bet that *your list* and *my list* will cross paths eventually. (and possibly have a little baby list that neither of us recognize) ---> :)
