lyrics

I was born in a West Virginia coal strike, Harold Caine the Second is my name
I was raised in a catch penny shanty town, till I was old enough to catch that train
You see my father said don't let no one stand in your way, of getting what you have earned
A man has got a right to his pay, you've got to give those people what they deserve
So I got off that train in the first place I saw with a bank and a westward train
I ran into the bank with my Pa's gun drawn, and left so fast that's why they call me the Hurricane
Chorus:
Hurricane, ride that train and keep movin’ oh so fast
Rob the rich man, put it back in the good hands of the working man at last
Well it wasn't too long till I was past Dixie, I hit every bank along the way
In every small town the people said they would miss me, like they'd miss their hard earned pay
Papers went crazy callin’ me an American Robin Hood on amphetamine
The only reason I move so fast is if I slow down now this train is bound to be my last
(Chrous)
In all of my work I never hurt nobody, no one ever seemed to stand in my way
I think deep down all those people loved me, and seeing a dog have his day
Everybody except ol’ Johnny Law, those cowards never seem to tire
I know every man has got a job, but they should know that they are playin’ with fire
(Chorus) x2
