A Thousand Winding Roads is the debut studio album by American country music artist Joe Diffie. The album's title is derived from a line in its lead-off single "Home", which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts in late 1990. Other singles from this album include "If You Want Me To" (#2) "If the Devil Danced (In Empty Pockets)" (#1), and "New Way (To Light Up an Old Flame)" (#2). "There Goes The Neighborhood" would later be recorded by Shania Twain on her debut album and "Stranger in Your Eyes" would later be recorded by Ken Mellons on his 1995 album, Where Forever Begins.
