Which way do lug nuts go on a Ford Escape wheel?

[v8ismyheart]

I know this sounds dumb, but I’m about to change a tire, and now I’m doubting myself – which way do the lug nuts go on? Clockwise to tighten, right? My neighbor said something about lefty-loosey, but now I’m second-guessing myself here. Help a guy out before I embarrass myself more!
