Hank Thompson - Detour lyrics

DETOUR (Paul Westmoreland) «© '45 Unichappell Music» Headed down life's crooked road lot of things I never knowed And because of me not knowing I now pine Trouble's got in the trail spent the next five years in jail Should have read that detour sign 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 When I got right to the place where it said about face I thought that all my worries were behind But the father I go the more sorrow I knowShould have read that detour sign Detour there's a muddy road... Detour there's a muddy road... Should have read that detour sign
