Detour

Detour - Bill Haley

Written by：Paul Westmoreland

Headed down life's crooked road

Lot of things I never knowed

And because of me not knowin'

I now pine trouble 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 the bitter things

I find should have read that detour sign

When I got right to the place where it said about face

I ride that all my troubles were behind

But the farther I go more sorrow I know

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
