Swinging Doors/I'm A Lonesome Fugitive/Sing Me Bac
Swing Doors:
(Merle Haggard)

This ol' smoke filled bar is something I'm not used to
But I gave up my home to see you satisfied
I just called to let you know where I'll be livin'
It's not much but I feel welcome here inside.

And I got swinging doors a jukebox and a barstool
And my new home has a flashing neon sign
Stop by and see me anytime you want to
Cause I'm always here at home till closin' time.

Yeah, I'm always here till closin' time.

I'm a Lonesome Fugitive:
(Liz Anderson - Casey Anderson)

Down every road there's always one more city
Thank you
I'm on the run the highway is my home
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
While mama used to pray my crops would fail
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail.

I'd like to settle down but they won't let me
A fugitive must be a rolling stone
Down every road there's always one more city
I'm on the run the highway is my home.

Sing Me Back Home:
(Merle Haggard)

The warden let the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
Let my guitar playing friend do my request.

Let him sing me back home the song I used to hear
Make my old mem'ries come alive
And take me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die.

Sing me back home before I die.

Branded ManL
(Merle Haggard)

One two three four.

I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
But they won't let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed 'em but they're still not satisfied
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold.

When they let me out of prison I held my head up high
Determined I would rise above the shame
But no matter where I travel a black mark follows me
I'm branded with a number on my name.

I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
But they won't let my secret go untold
I paid the debt I owed 'em but they're still not satisfied
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold...
