Detour lyrics

Paul Westmoreland



Travelin` down life`s crooked road,

Lots of things there I never knowed

Because of me not knowin` now I pine,

Trouble got on my trail

I 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 is 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 me to face

Well I figured all of my worries were behind but the further I go

I find more chug holes there in the road,

I should have read that detour sign



Chorus



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,

Should have read that detour sign
