Detour (Album Version) - Spade Cooley

作词：P Westmoreland

作曲：P Westmoreland

Headed down

Life's crooked road

Lots of things I never knowed

And because of me not knowing

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 thought all my worries were behind

But the further I go the 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

When I got stuck in the mud

All my hopes dropped with a thud

I raken my heart strings are made of twine

I got 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 road

Should have read that detour sign
