[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 will never do anyhow [Chorus 1] When your rooster's a crowing 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] An' it ain't no use in turning on your light, baby The light I never knowed An' it ain't no use in turning on your light, baby I'm on the dark side of the road [Chorus 2] But I wish there was something I could do or say To try and make you change your mind and stay We never did too much talking anyway But don't think twice, it's all right [Verse 3] Well, it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal Like you never done before It ain't no use in calling out my name, gal I can't hear you anymore [Chorus 3] I'm a thinking and a wondering, walking 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 [Outro] So long, honey, baby Where I'm bound, I cannot tell But goodbye's too good a word, gal So I'll just kinda say, "Fare thee well" Now I'm not saying that you treated me unkind You could have done a lot better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's all right
