Detour
Navigating Life's Detours: Dean Martin's Musical Wisdom
Lyrics
Detour, there's a muddy road ahead
Detour, warning of a challenging path ahead
Detour, paid no mind to what it said
Ignoring the advice and not paying attention to warnings
Detour, oh, these bitter things I find
Experiencing unpleasant and difficult situations
Should have read that detour sign
Regretting not heeding the detour sign
Headin' down life's crooked road, lot of things I never knowed
Navigating life's unpredictable journey with unknown challenges
And 'cause of me not knowin' I now pine
Regret for not being aware and suffering the consequences
Trouble got in the trail, spent the next five years in jail
Facing trouble and serving time in jail due to lack of caution
Should have read that detour sign
Expressing remorse for not heeding the detour sign
Detour, there's a muddy road ahead
Reiteration of the warning about a challenging road ahead
Detour, paid no mind to what it said
Continued disregard for warnings and signs
Detour, oh, these bitter things I find
Reflecting on the bitterness of the consequences faced
Should have read that detour sign
Emphasizing the regret for not heeding the detour sign
When I got right to the place where it said about face
Reaching a point where it's too late to turn back
I thought that all my worries were behind
Initial relief followed by increasing sorrow and regret
But the farther I go the more sorrow I know
Realizing the depth of troubles as the journey progresses
Should have read that detour sign
Expressing regret for not heeding the detour sign earlier
Detour, there's a muddy road ahead
Repeating the warning of a challenging road ahead
Detour, paid no mind to what it said
Persistently ignoring advice and warnings
Detour, oh, these bitter things I find
Continued experience of bitterness and hardships
Should have read that detour sign
Underscoring the regret for neglecting the detour sign
Didn't have the way of how to get
Lamenting the lack of knowledge on how to escape difficulties
From the hole that I'm in yet
Feeling trapped and not knowing a way out
Should have read that detour sign
Expressing regret for not heeding the detour sign
Detour, there's a muddy road ahead
Reiterating the warning of a challenging road ahead
Detour, paid no mind to what it said
Continued disregard for cautionary advice
Detour, oh, these bitter things I find
Enduring bitter consequences and hardships
Should have read that detour sign
Stressing the importance of heeding the detour sign
Should have read that detour sign
Final acknowledgment of the regret for not taking the detour
Should have read that detour sign
Final emphasis on the missed opportunity to avoid troubles
