Verse 1
Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe, uh
If'n you don't know by now
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe, uh
It'll never do somehow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m a-travelin' on
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Verse 2
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
The light I never knew
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I’m on the dark side of the road
But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But we never did too much talkin' anyway
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Verse 3
So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never done before
And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can’t hear you anymore
I’m a-thinkin' and a-wonderin', walkin' down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I’m told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Verse 4
And
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 sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better, but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right
Ooh!
