Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If'n you don't know by now
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It'll never do, somehow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'll be travelin' on
But don't think twice, it's all right
Well, it ain't no use turnin' on your light, babe
The light I never knowed
And it ain't no use turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still, I wish there were somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But we never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right
Well, it ain't no use callin' out my name, gal
Like you never done before
And it ain't no use callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
But I'll be thinkin' and wonderin' as I'm walkin' down the road
How I once loved a woman, a child, I am told
Well, I give her my heart, but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right
So long, honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say "fare thee well"
Well, I'm not sayin' you treated me unkind
Coulda done better, but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right
Don't think twice, it's all right
