I'd like to hold my head up
But they won't let my secret go untold
I've paid the debt I owed her,
but you're still not satisfied
When they let me out of prison,
He turned and I would rise
But no matter where I'm living,
I'm branded with a number on my neck
I'd like to hold my head up
But they won't let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed them,
but they're still not satisfied
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 livin'
I gotta tell them where I've been
Or they'll send me back to prison if I fail
I'd like to pull my head up,
But they won't let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed them,
but they're still not satisfied
