Well, 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'll never do, somehow
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
But don't think twice, it's all right

And it ain't no use in turnin' on a light, Babe
The light I never knowed
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on a light, Babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
I wish there was somethin' you could do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
Don't think twice, it's all right

Well it ain't no use in callin' out my name, Gal
Like you never did before
Well it ain't no use in callin' out my name, Gal
I can't hear anymore
I'm thinkin' and wond'rin', I'm walkin' down the road
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
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 ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You coulda done better but I don't mind
You just wasted my precious time
Don't think twice, it's all right
