The Earls of Leicester - Branded Wherever I Go lyrics

[Verse 1] I received a letter you wrote dear In it you said you’d wait for me I’m asking you to please not wait dear It will only ruin your life I see [Chorus] I please don’t wait for me darling we can never be happy I know I’ll always be an ex convict and branded wherever I go [Verse 2] In three years my sentence is over the gates will swing wide for me The warden will say I’m a freeman but my name will never be free [Chorus] Please don’t wait for me darling we can never be happy I know I’ll always be an ex convict and branded wherever I go [Verse 3] May God bless you for your kindness you stuck with me through thick and thin I love you too much to disgrace you in closing let God bless you again [Chorus] I please don’t wait for me darling we can never be happy I know I’ll always be an ex convict and branded wherever I go
