Ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
Ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
Doesn'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 that I'm traveling on
Don't think twice, it's alright
Ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you never did before
Ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
Still, I'm a-wishing there was something you could do or say
That would make me change my mind and stay
But we never really did that much talking anyway
And don't think twice, it's alright
Ain't no use in turning on your light, girl
The light I never know, yeah
Ain't no use in turning on your light, girl
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still thinking and a-wondering as I'm walking down the road
I used to love a woman, a child now I'm told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's alright
So long, honey babe
Where I'm going, I can't tell
Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
'Cause you could've been better, but I don't mind
Oh, you just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's alright
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
You could have been better, but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
Don't think twice, it's alright
