Branded Man    (SIR 21604)  Tommy P Larsen

OPENER



Grand Square
I'd like to hold my head up - and be proud of who I am
But they won't let my secret - go untold
Allemande Left and Weave The Ring
I paid the debt I owed them - but they're still not satisfied
Now I'm a branded man - out in the cold

FIGURE



Heads Promenade Halfway
Come down Square Thru Four
All the way - Right And Left Thru
Pass Thru - Trade By
Touch A Quarter - Scoot Back
Come back and Swing her - and Promenade back home again
Now I'm a branded man - out in the cold

MIDDLE BREAK



Grand Square
When they let me out of prison - I held my head up high
Determined I would rise - above the shame
Allemande Left and Weave The Ring
But no matter where I'm living - the black mark follows me
I'm branded with a number - on my name

CLOSER



Grand Square
If I live to be a hundred - I guess I'll never clear my name
'Cause everybody knows - I've been in jail
Allemande Left and Weave The Ring
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

TAG



I'm a branded man - out in the cold
