[Verse 1]
Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby
If you don't know by now
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby
It'll never do, anyhow
When your rooster's a-crowin' at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason why I'm traveling on
But don't think twice, it's all right

[Verse 2]
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
The light I never known
And 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' I could do or say
To try and make you change your mind and stay
We never did too much talking, anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right

[Verse 3]
Well it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never done before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin', walkin' down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 4]
So long, honey babe
Where I'm bound, I cannot tell
But goodbye is too good a word, gal
So, I just kinda say, "fare-thee-well"
Now, I'm not saying that you treated me unkind
You could've done a lot better, but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's alright
