You needn't sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter anyhow
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out, look out your window, baby, I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travellin' on
Yeah, don't think twice, it's all right

I'm headed down that long lonesome road, girl
Where I'm bound I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word, girl
I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I, I don't mind
You just sorta wasted my precious time
Ooh, don't think twice, it's all right

Take it home

When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Well, look out your window, baby, I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm movin' on
Yeah, don't think twice, it's all right

Ain't no use to sit and wonder why, girl
It don't matter anyhow
Ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now

When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Well, look out your window, baby, I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm movin' on
Yeah, don't think twice, it's all right

I'm headed down that long lonesome road, girl
Where I'm bound I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word, girl
I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I, I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
Ooh, don't think twice, it's all right

Take it

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
