Branded Man

Текст песни Vince Gill & Paul Franklin - Branded Man

Branded Man LyricsI’d like to hold my head up
And be proud of who I am
But they won’t let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed them
But they’re still not satisfied
Now I’m a branded man out in the cold

When they let me out of prison
I held my head up high
Determined I would rise above the shame
But no matter where I travel
The black mark follows me
I’m branded with a number on my name
I’d like to hold my head up
And be proud of who I am
But they won’t let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed them
But they’re still not satisfied
Now I’m a branded man out in the cold

If I live to be a hundred
Guess I’ll never clear my name
‘cause everybody knows I’ve been in jail
No matter where I’m living
I’ve got to tell them where I’ve been
Or they’ll send me back to prison if I fail
Now I’m a branded man out in the cold
