Detour - Original |
| Headed down life’s crooked road |
| Lots of things there that I never knowed |
| Because of me not knowin' I now pine |
| Trouble got right on my trail |
| I 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, all these bitter things I find |
| Should have read that detour sign |
| Well when I got to the place |
| Where that sign told be about my face |
| Well, I figured all of my worries were behind |
| But the farther I go |
| I find more chug holes there in the road |
| I should have read that detour sign |
| Detour, there’s a muddy road ahead |
| Detour, paid no mind to what it said |
| Detour, all these bitter things I find |
| Should have read that detour sign |
| Well, I got stuck down in the mud |
| All my hopes fell there with a thud |
| I felt like my heartstrings were made of twine |
| I had no power to get |
| From that hole I was in yet |
| I should have read that detour sign |
| Detour, there’s a muddy road ahead |
| Detour, paid no mind to what it said |
| Detour, all these bitter things I find |
| Should have read that detour sign |
| Should have read that detour sign |
