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'll never do any how When your rooster's a'crow'n at the break of dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason why I'm travell'n on But don't think twice it's alright And it ain't no use in turn'n on your light babe The light I've never known And it ain't no use in turn'n on your light babe I'm on the dark side of the road But I wish there was someth'in I could do or say To try and make you change your mind and stay We never did too much talk'n anyway But don't think twice it's alright Well it ain't no use in call'n out my name gal Like you never done before It ain't no use in call'n out my name gal I can't hear you any more I'm a think'n and a-wonder'n, walking 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 alright So long honey babe Where I'm bound I can not tell But goodbye's too good a word gal So I just kind'a say fare thee well Now I'm not say'n that you treated me unkind You could'a done a lot better but I don't mind You just kind'a wasted my precious time But don't think twice it's alright
