Ain't no use to sit an wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
Oh now ain't no use to sit and wonder why
It won't ever do somehow

Oh when your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Oh look out your window and know I'll be gone
Oh you're the reason I'm travellin' on
Don't think twice, it's alright

There ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
The light I've never known
Oh now it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road

Oh now I'm thinkin' and I'm wonderin', walkin' down the road
Oh I once loved a man of child I am told
Oh I gave him my heart, but he wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's alright

There ain't no use in callin' out my name, boy
Like you never done before
Oh now ain't no use in callin' out my name now
'Cause I can't hear anymore

Oh I wish there was something you might do or say
Oh to try to make me change my mind and stay
Oh but we never did too much talkin' anyways
Don't think twice, it's alright

So long, honey baby
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Oh but 'Good-bye' is too good a word now
So I'll just say, 'Fare thee well'

Oh now I ain't sayin' that you treated me unkind
Oh you coulda done better, but oh I don't mind
Oh you just kinda wasted all of my precious time
Don't think twice, it's alright

Oh you just kinda wasted all of my precious time
Don't think twice, it's alright
