Detour Lyrics - One For The Road - Willie Nelson

Headed down life's crooked road 

Lots of things I never knowed 

And because of me not knowin', I'm not fine 

Trouble got right on my trail 

I 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 

I got stuck in the mud 

all my hopes dropped with a thud 

And I thought that my heart strings were made of twine 

But the father I go 

The more sorrow that 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 the bitter things I find 

Should have read that detour sign 

Should have read that detour sign 

Should have read that detour sign
