Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe If'n you don't know by now An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It'll never do somehow When your rooster crows at the break-a dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on But don't think twice, it's all right
An' it ain't no use in-a turnin' on your light, babe The light I never knowed An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe I'm on the dark side of the road But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay But we never did too much talkin' anyway But don't think twice, it's all right
So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal Like you never done before An' it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal I can't hear you any more I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walking down the road I once loved a woman, a child I'm told 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 is too good a word, babe So I'll just say fare thee well I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's all right
