It ain't no use to sit
and wonder why babe
It don't matter anyhow
It ain't no use to sit
and wonder why babe
If you don't know by now
When the rooster crows
at the break of dawn
look out your window
and I'll be gone
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 never know
It ain't no use in turnin' on
your light babe
I'm on the dark side
of the road
Still 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
Don't think twice it's alright
I'm walkin' down that
long lonesome road babe
Where I'm bound I can't tell
But goodbye is
too good a word gal
So I'll just say fare-thee-well
I ain't sayin' that you
treated me unkind
You could've done better
but I don't mind
You just sort of
wasted my precious time
Don't think twice it's alright
It ain't no use in callin' out
my name gal
Like you never did before
It ain't no use in callin' out
my name gal
I can't hear you anymore
I'm a thinkin' and a wonderin'
all the way down the road
I once loved a woman
a child I'm told
I gave her my heart
but she wanted my soul
Don't think twice it's alright
