branded

by Dominic Frontiere & Alan Alch

Original Air Dates: 1965 - 1966 (NBC)

AS HEAR ON TV

All but one man died, there at Bitter Creek.
And they say he ran away.

Branded, scorned as the one who ran.
What do you do when you’re branded,
And you know you’re a man

Wherever you go, for the rest of your life
You must prove, you’re a man. Branded!

COMPLETE VERSION

All but one man died, there at Bitter Creek,
And they say he ran away

Branded! Marked with a coward’s shame.
What do you do when you’re branded,
Will you fight for your name?

He was innocent, not a charge was true,
But the world will never know

Branded! Scorned as the one who ran.
What do you do when you’re branded,
And you know you’re a man?

And wherever you go for the rest of your life
You must prove... you’re a man!
