It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe If you don't know by now An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don't matter anyhow When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on Don't think twice, it's all right
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe That 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 I wish there was somethin' you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay We never did too much talkin' anyway So don't think twice, it's all right
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe Like you never did before It ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe 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 you know I gave you my heart but you wanted my soul But don't think twice, it's all right
I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe Where I'm bound, I can't tell But goodbye's just too good a word, babe So I'll just say fare thee well I ain't sayin' that you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious life But don't think twice, it's all right
