Well it ain't no use just sittin', wonderin' why, baby
Even if you don't know by now
Well it ain't no use just sittin', wonderin' why, baby
It don't ever do, somehow
When your rooster caws at the break of the dawn
Why don't you look out your window and I'll be gone
Your the reason I'm travelin' on
Don't think twice, it's alright

It ain't no use in a-turnin' on your light, baby
The light I'll never know
It ain't no use in a-turnin' on your light, baby
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was somethin' you could do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But you know, we never did much talkin' anyway
Don't think twice, it's alright

It ain't no use in a-callin' out my name, gal
Like you've never done before
It ain't no use in a-callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear anymore
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin', walkin' down the road
You know I loved a woman, a child I'm told
You know I gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's alright

So long honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbyes do good work, babe
So I just say: Fairly well
I ain't a-sayin' you treated me unkind
You could've done better, but I don't mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
Don't think twice, it's alright
Yeah, don't think twice, it's alright
