Headed down life's crooked road lot of things I never knowed
And 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 the bitter things I find should have read that detour sign
[ harmonica - guitar ]
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 I know should have read that detour sign
Detour there's a muddy road ahead...
Should have read that detour sign should have read that detour sign

. . .


I saw the light I saw the light no more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight praise the Lord I saw the light

I wandered so aimless life filled with sin I wouldn't let my dear Saviour in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light...

Just like a blind man I wandered along worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like a blind man God gave back his sight praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light...
[ guitar ]
I was a fool to wander and stray straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for all the right praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light...
Well I saw the light...
Well I said praise the Lord I saw the light

. . .


Oh since my baby left me I've found new place to dwell
Down at the end on Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
And though it's always crowded you can still find some room
For broken hearted lovers to cry away the gloom
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
[ guitar - sax ]
Well the bellhop's tears keep flowing the deskclerk's dressed in black
They've been so long on Lonely Street they'll never never never get back
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
So if your baby leaves and you got a tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street to Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
[ guitar ]
Oh since my baby left me...

. . .


With someone like you a pal good and true
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
A place that's known to God alone just a spot we could call our own
We'll find perfect peace where joys never cease
Somewhere beneath the stary skies
We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere out in the west
And let the rest of the world go by
[ guitar - piano ]
With someone like you...
And let the rest of the world go by

. . .


I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line
And let that old 2-20 pacify mind
Yeah I'm goin' down to the river I'm gonna take me a rockin' chair
Yeah honey if these blues don't get me I'm gonna rock away from here
Well trouble in mind I'm blue but I won't be blue always
Before the sun's gonna shine in my backyard one of these days
[ guitar - harmonica ]
Trouble in mind that's true I've almost almost lost my mind
Sometimes I feel like livin' sometimes I feel like dyin'
Well trouble in mind I'm blue...

. . .


Oh give me land lots of land under starry skies above don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me out forever but I ask you please don't fence me in
Just turn me loose let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies
On my cayuse let me wander over yonder till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon until I lose my senses
Can't look at hubbles and I can't stand fences don't fence me in
[ guitar - keyboards ]
Just turn me loose...
Don't fence me in don't fence me in

. . .


You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
And you asked me not to call you on the phone
There's something that I've been wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one who ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
[ guitar ]
The glamour of the gay night life has lured you
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Where you wait to be anybody's darling
And forget the truest love you'll ever know
I didn't know God made...
And went back to the wild side of life

. . .


When evening chores are over at our rach house on the plains
And all I've got to do is lay around
I saddle up my pony and ride off down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down

Ridin' down the canyon just to watch the sun go down
A picture that no artis ever could paint
White faced cattlow lowin' on the mountain trail
I hear a coyote whinin' for its mate
Cactus plants are bloomin' sagebrush everywhere
Granite spoires are standing all around
I tell you folks it's heaven to be ridin' down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down
[ guitar ]
Cactus plants are bloomin'...
To watch the desert sun go down

Sioux City Sue Sioux City Sue your hair is red your eyes are blue
I'd swap my horse and dog for you Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue Sioux City Sue there ain't no gal as true as my sweet Sioux City Sue

I drive a herd of cattle down from old Nebraska way
That's how I come to be in the state of Iowa
And I met a girl in Iowa her eyes were big and blue
I asked her what her name was she said Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue Sioux City Sue...
[ keyboards - guitar ]
I asked her if she had a beau she said yes quite a few
Still I started courtin' my Sioux City Sue
The first time that I stole a kiss I caught her stealing two
I asked her did she love me she said indeed I do
Oh Sioux City Sue Sioux City Sue...
There ain't no gal as true as my sweet Sioux City Sue

. . .


You are my sunshine my only sunshine you make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know dear how much I love you please don't take my sunshine away

The other night dear as I laid sleeping I dreamed I held you by my side
When I awoke dear I was mistaken and I hung my head and cry
You are my sunshine...

You told me once dear you really loved me and no one else could come between
But now you've left me and you love another and you have shatered all my dreams
You are my sunshine...

I'll always love you and make you happy if you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another you'll regret it all some day
You are my sunshine...
Please don't take my sunshine away

. . .


Oh Danny boy
The pipes, the pipes are ca-alling
From glen to glen
And down the mountain side
And the summer's gone
All the leaves are dy-y-ying
It's you, it's you
Must go and I must bide

But come ye ba-ack
When summer's in the mea-eadow
Or when the valley's hushed
And white with snow
I'll be here
In sunshine or in sha-adows
Oh Danny boy
Oh Da-a-a-anny boy
I love you so

But come ye ba-ack
When summer's in the mea-eadow
Or when the winter's whi-ite
And hushed with snow
I'll be here
In sunshine or in sha-adows
Oh Danny boy
Oh Da-anny boy
I love you so...

. . .


I'll be loving you always with a love that's true always
When the things you've planned need a helping hand
I will understand always always
Days may not be fair always that's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour not for just a day not for just a year but always
[ keyboards ]
Not for just a year but always

. . .


Summertime and the livin' is easy fish are bitin' and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your mom is good looking so hush baby don't want you cry
Some of these days you gona rise up singin'
You'll spread your wings and you'll take the sky
Till that time there's a nothing can harm you so hush little baby don't you cry
Hush little baby don't you cry

. . .


Because of you there's a song in my heart because of you my romance had its start
Because of you the sun will shine the moon and stars will say you're mine
Forever and never to part
I only live for your love and your kiss it's paradise to be near you like this
Because of you my life is now worthwhile and I can smile because of you

. . .


Am I blue am I blue ain't these tears in these eyes tellin' you
Am I blue you'd be too if each plan that you had done and fell through
There was a time I was your only one now I'm sad and lonely one I'm such lonely one
Was I gay till today now you're gone and we're through am I blue

. . .


The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wanderin' by and lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forgert how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips you took my love so tenderly
[ strings - piano ]
The shore was kissed by sea...

. . .


Those far away places with strange sound and names far away over sea
Far away places with the strange sound and names are calling calling me
I go into China or maybe Siam I wanna see for myself
Those far away places I've been readin' bout in a book that I took from a shelf
I keep wishin' I was somewhere else way on a train
I pray for the day I can get under way and search for those castles in Spain
They call me a dreamer well maybe I am but I'm never longin' to see
The strange far away places with the strange sound and names calling calling me
Calling calling me

. . .


Up in the morning out on the job
Work like the devil for my pay
And that lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Fuss with my woman
toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
But that lucky old sun
Ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Lord above
can't you see I'm cryin'
Tears are in my eyes
Send down a cloud
With a silver linin'
Take me to paradise

Show me that river
lead me across
Take all my troubles away
Like that lucky old sun
I'll have nothin' to do
But roll around heaven all day -
An' Like that lucky old sun
I'll have nothin' to do
But roll around heaven all day.

. . .


Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time
Life is bare gloom and mis'ry everywhere stormy weather
Just can't get my poor self together I'm weary all the time all the time
When she went away the blues walked in and met me
If she stays away old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me walk in the sun once more
Can't go on everything I had is gone stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time

. . .


It's quarter to three there's no one in the place except you and me
So set 'em up Joe I've got a little story you oughta know
We're drinking my friend to the end of a brief episode
Just give me one for my baby and one more for the road

I've got the routine so drop another nickel in the machine
I'm feeling so bad I wish you'd make the music dreamy and sad
I could tell you a lot but you've got to be true to your code
So give me one for my baby and one more for the road
Just give me one for my baby and one more for the road
