Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
Even if 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
But you're the reason I'm a traveling on
So don't think twice, it's all right
Well, it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
Well, it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
So I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But you're not listening to me, anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right
Well, it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you never done before
Well, it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
I can't hear you any more
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
You could've done better but I don't mind
You just kind of wasted my prescious time
So 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
I'm a-sitting and a-wond'rin' walking down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
So don't think twice, it's all right
