Ain't no use to sit,
And wonder why, babe,
It don't matter anyhow,
Oh, it 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,
Look out your window and I'll be gone,
You're the reason that I'm traveling on,
Don't think twice it's alright.
Ain't no use,
In turning on your light, babe,
The light I've never known,
Ain't no use,
In turning on your light, babe,
I'm on the dark side of the road.
Still I wish there was something,
You would do,
To try and make me,
Change my mind and stay,
We never did too much talking anyway,
Don't think twice it's alright.
I'm walking down,
The long and lonesome road, babe,
Where I'm bound, I can't tell,
Goodbye's too good a word to say, girl,
So I'll just say fare thee well.
I ain't saying you've treated me unkind,
You could have done better,
But I don't mind,
You just kind of wasted,
My precious time,
Don't think twice it's alright.
