Lyrics
Well, It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe. If you don't know by now. And It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe. It will never do somehow.
When your rooster crows at the breaks of dawn. Look out your window and I'll be gone. You're the reason I'm traveling on. But don't think twice, it's all right.
And It ain't no use in turning on your light, babe. The light I never knowed. And It ain't no use in turning 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 talking anyway. So don't think twice, it's all right.
So It ain't no use in calling out my name, girl. Like you never done before. And It ain't no use in calling out my name, girl. I can't hear you any more.
I'm a-thinking and a-wonderin' walking down the road. I once loved a woman, a child I am told. I give her my heart but she wanted my soul. But don't think twice, it's all right.
So long honey, babe. Where I'm bound, I can't tell. Goodbye's too good a word, babe. So I'll just say fare thee well.
I ain't saying 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.
