Songtext von Branded Man

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 'em 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'm living a black mark follows me I'm branded with a number on my name [ guitar ] If I live to be a hundred I guess I'll never clear my name Cause everybody knows I've been in jail No matter where I'm living I got to tell 'em where I been Or they'll send me back to prison if I fail I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am... Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
