[Verse 1]
Oh, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It 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 I'm trav'lin' on
Don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 2]
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
Don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 3]
Ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe
Like I never did before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walking down the road
You once loved a woman, a child, you know
I gave you my heart but you wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 4]
I'm walkin' down that long and lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye is just too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' that you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious life
But don't think twice, it's all right
Oh, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It 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 I'm trav'lin' on
Don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 2]
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
Don't think twice, it's all right
[Verse 3]
Ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe
Like I never did before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walking down the road
You once loved a woman, a child, you know
I gave you my heart but you wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's all right

You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious life
But don't think twice, it's all right
