Ain't no use to sit an' wonder why, babe If you don't know by now Ain't no use to sit and wonder why It won't ever do somehow
Oh when your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and know I'll be gone Oh and you're the reason I'm travelin' on Don't think twice, it's alright
Ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe The light I've never known Oh now it ain't no use in turnin' on your light I'm on the dark side of the road
Oh now I'm thinkin' and I'm wonderin', walkin' down the road Oh I once loved a man of child I am told Oh I gave him my heart, but he wanted my soul Now don't think twice, it's alright
Ain't no use in callin' out my name, boy Like you never done before Oh now it ain't no use in callin' out my name now I can't hear anymore
Oh I wish there was something you might do or say Oh to try to make me change my mind and stay Oh but we never did too much talkin' anyways Now don't think twice, it's alright
So long, honey baby Where I'm bound, I can't tell Oh but goodbye is too good a word now So I'll just say fare-thee-well
Oh now I ain't sayin' that you treated me unkind Oh you coulda done better, but lo I surely don't mind Oh you just kinda wasted all of my precious time Don't think twice, it's alright
Oh you just kinda wasted all my precious time Don't think twice, it's alright
