Ramblin' Jack Elliot - 900 Miles Lyrics

Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe,
If'n you don't know by now.
It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe.
It'll never do, somehow.

When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travelin' on,
but don't think twice, it's alright.

Ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe,
That light I never knowed.
Ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe,
I'm on the dark side of the road.

Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say,
To try & make me change my mind and stay.
We never did too much talkin' anyway,
So don't think twice, it's all right.

It ain't no use in callin out my name, gal
Like you never done before.
It ain't no use in callin out my name, gal
I can't hear anymore

I'm sittin & a wonderin, walkin down the road
I once loved a woman - a child I am told
I give her my heart, but she wanted my soul
but don't think twice, it's alright.

So long honey babe
where I'm bound, I can't tell.
Goodbye is too good a word babe.
So I'll just say, "Fare thee well."

I ain't sayin you treated me unkind
You coulda done better but, I don't mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
but don't think twice, it's alright.
