Branded Man - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)/The Strangers

Written by：Merle Haggard

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

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

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

I guess I'll never clear my name

Cause everybody knows I've been in jai

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

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

Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
