The lyrics are a poignant farewell from a speaker to a lover, expressing a mix of resignation, lingering affection, and a touch of bitterness. Here are the lyrics:

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, darlin'

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why

If you don't know by now, I'm never gonna tell you anyhow

So it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, darlin'

It ain't no use to sit and wonder who, darlin'

It ain't no use to sit and wonder who

If you don't know by now, I'm never gonna show you anyhow

So it ain't no use to sit and wonder who, darlin'

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, darlin'

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why

If you don't know by now, I'm never gonna tell you anyhow

So it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, darlin'

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn, darlin'

Look out your window and I'll be gone

You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on

But don't think twice, it's all right

It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, darlin'

A light I never knowed

It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, darlin'

I'm on the dark side of the road

But don't think twice, it's all right

I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin' all the way down the road

I once loved a woman, a child, I'm told

I give her my heart but she wanted my soul

But don't think twice, it's all right

So long, honey, baby, where I'm bound, I can't tell

But goodbye's too good a word, babe, so I'll just say fare thee well

I ain't sayin' 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
