[Verse 1]
Well, there ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If'n you don't know by now
And there 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 a-travelin' on
But don't think twice, it's all right

[Verse 2]
Well, it ain't no use in a-turning on your light, babe
The light I never knowed
And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was something you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But we never did too much talking anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right

[Verse 3]
And it ain't no use in calling out my name, babe
Like you never done before
And it ain't no use in calling out my name, babe
I can't hear you anymore
I'm thinking and a-wondering, walking all the way 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
[Verse 4]
So I'm walking down that long lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
I ain't a-saying you treated me unkind
You could've done better, but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right
