Detour Ahead Lyrics
Detour Ahead - Count Basie
Lyrics by：Lou Carter
Composed by：John Virgil Frigo
Smooth road clear day
But why am I the only one travelin' this way
How strange the road to love should be so easy
Can't there me hot detour ahead
Wake up slow down
Before you crash and break your heart gullible clown
You fool you're headed in the wrong direction
Can't you see the detour ahead
The further you travel the harder to unravel the web
He spins around you
Turn back while there's time
Can't you see the danger sign
Soft shoulders surround you
Smooth road clear night
Oh lucky me that suddenly I saw the light
I'm turning back away from all that trouble
Smooth road
Smooth road
No detour ahead
Smooth road clear night
Oh lucky me that suddenly I saw the light
I'm turning back turning back
Away from all that trouble
Smooth road
Smooth road
No detour ahead
