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 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 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 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 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 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 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
