I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' all the way down the road
Make me wanna change my mind and stay
It don't matter anyhow
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
I give her my heart and she wanted my soul
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
But don't think twice, it's all right
Could have done better but I don't mind
It ain't no use to sit and wonder why
I'm on the dark side of the road
So I'll just say fare thee well
Look out your window and I'll be gone
But goodbye's too good a word, babe
I can't hear you anymore
And it ain't no use in callin' out my name
I'm going down that long, lonesome road, babe
Like you never did before
But don't think twice, it's all right
Don't think twice, it's all right
That light I never knowed
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light
You just kinda wasted my precious time
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
We never did too much talkin' anyway
And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You're the reason I'm travelin' on
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
