Lyrics

[Verse 1] Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things I never knowed Because of me not knowin', I now pine Trouble got in the trail, spent the next five years in jail Should have read that detour sign [Chorus] Detour, there's a muddy road ahead Detour, paid no mind to what it said Detour, oh these bitter things I find Should have read that detour sign [Verse 2] When I got right to the place where it said "About Face" I thought that all my troubles were bеhind But the farther I go, the morе sorrow I know Should have read that detour sign [Chorus] Detour, there's a muddy road ahead Detour, paid no mind to what it said Detour, oh these bitter things I find Should have read that detour sign [Verse 3] When I got stuck in the mud, all my hopes dropped with a thud I guess that my heart strings are made of twine Have no willpower to get from the hole that I'm in yet Should have read that detour sign [Chorus] Detour, there's a muddy road ahead Detour, paid no mind to what it said Detour, oh these bitter things I find Should have read that detour sign Should have read that detour sign Should have read that detour sign
