Branded Lyrics - Ghost Train - Marty Stuart

Well Im branded, wherever I go 

Trying to outrun a bad story everybody seems to know 

Might as well be wearing a ball and chain 

Cause everywhere I travel, see my picture 

With a number by my name 

Spent some time in San Francisco 

Locked up for vagrancy 

I busted out a time or two, took a run at getting free 

They put me back in the jailhouse, I finished serving my time 

Turned me loose and the man said, Ill dog you to the end of the line 

Now Im branded, wherever I go 

Trying to outrun a bad story everybody seems to know 

Might as well be wearing a ball and chain 

Cause everywhere I travel, see my picture 

With a number by my name 

The trouble with the truth 

It always comes around 

Seems to be there waiting for me, in every town 

Well Im guilty of the crime of trying to get back home 

Dont want to bother nobody 

Just want to be left alone
