(Doo doo, a why babe, a why babe doo doo why babe why babe)
Ain't no use to sit and wonder why babe
(why babe why babe)
It don't matter anyhow
Oh it ain't no use to sit and wonder why babe
(why babe why babe)
If you don't know by now
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Flap your wings 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 turnin' on your light babe
(why babe, why babe)
The light I've never knowed
Ain't no use in turnin' on your light babe
(why babe why babe)
I'm on the dark side of the road
And I wish there was something you would do
To try to 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 lonesome road babe (road babe)
Where I'm bound I can't tell (can't tell)
But goodbye is too good a word to say girl (why babe why babe)
So let's just say "fare thee well"
And you said "you treated me unkind"
Could have done better but I don't mind
(You just kinda wasted my precious time)
Don't think twice it's alright
Ain't no use to sit and wonder why babe
(why babe why babe)
It don't matter anyhow
Oh it ain't no use to sit and wonder why babe
(why babe why babe)
If you don't know by now
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Flap your wings 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 turnin' on your light babe
(why babe, why babe)
The light I've never knowed
Ain't no use in turnin' on your light babe
(why babe why babe)
I'm on the dark side of the road
And I wish there was something you would do
To try to make me change my mind and stay
(We never did too much talking anyway)
Don't think twice it's alright
