Well I'm branded, wherever I go
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
Cos everywhere I travel I see a 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 gettin' free
They put me back in the jailhouse, I finished servin' my time
Turned me loose, and the man's set to dog me to the end of the line
But I'm branded, wherever I go
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name
The trouble with the truth: it always comes around
It seems to be there waitin' for me, in every town
Well I'm guilty of the crime, of tryna get back home
Don't wanna bother nobody, just wanna be left alone
But I'm branded, wherever I go
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name
