- Detour Lyrics / with translations'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
Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things I never knowed
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 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, 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 guess that my heart strings are made of twine
Had 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 that detour sign
Should have read that detour sign
Should have read that detour sign
Paid no mind to what it said
Detour, oh these bitter things I find
Should have read that detour sign
Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things I never knowed
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 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, more sorrow I know
'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 guess that my heart strings are made of twine
Had 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 that detour sign
Should have read that detour sign
Should have read that detour sign
