Detour Lyrics
Detour (Remastered) - Ferlin Husky
Written by：Westmoreland Paul
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
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 know I 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 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
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
