Lyrics Dean Martin

Dean Martin

Detour

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

Headin' down life's crooked road, lot of things I never knowed

And 'cause 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, these bitter things I find

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 farther 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

Didn't have the way of how 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

Should have read that detour sign

Should have read that detour sign
