Patti Page - Detour Lyrics
Detour - there's a muddy road aheadDetour - paid no mind to what it saidDetour - oh, these bitter things I find!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign!Headed down life's crooked roadLots of things I never knowedAnd 'cause of me not knowin', I now pineTrouble got in the trail,Spent the next five years in jailShoulda read that "Detour" sign!Detour - there's a muddy road aheadDetour - paid no mind to what it saidDetour - oh, these bitter things I find!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign!When I got right to the placeWhere it said "about-face"I thought that all my worries were behindBut the farther I go,The more sorrow I knowShoulda read that "Detour" sign!Detour - there's a muddy road aheadDetour - paid no mind to what it saidDetour - oh, these bitter things I find!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign!When I got stuck in the mud,All my hopes dropped with a thudI guess that my heartstrings are made of twineHave no willpower to get>From the hole that I'm in yetShoulda read that "Detour" sign!Detour - there's a muddy road aheadDetour - paid no mind to what it saidDetour - oh, these bitter things I find!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign!Shoulda read that "Detour" sign
