[Verse 1]
Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If'n you don't know by now
It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It'll never do, somehow
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm traveling on
But don't think twice, it's alright
[Chorus]
Ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
Ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
[Verse 2]
Still I wish there was something you would do or say
To try & make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right
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 anymore
I'm sitting and a wondering, walking down the road
I once loved a woman - a child I am told
I give her my heart, but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's alright
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
So long honey babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word babe
So I'll just say, "Fare thee well."
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
You could done better but, I don't mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's alright
