About Don't Think Twice, It's All Right

''Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962, and released on the 1963 album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. Dylan once introduced "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" as "a statement that maybe you can say to make yourself feel better... as if you were talking to yourself." The song, written around the time that Suze Rotolo indefinitely prolonged her stay in Italy, is based on a melody taught to Dylan by folksinger Paul Clayton. .

Don't Think Twice, It's All Right Lyrics

[00:08.71] It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
[00:13.94] If'n you don't know by now
[00:17.53] And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
[00:22.91] It'll never do somehow
[00:26.26] When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
[00:31.46] Look out your window and I'll be gone
[00:35.56] You're the reason I'm a-traveling on
[00:39.71] But don't think twice, it's all right
[00:44.59]
[00:54.97] And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
[00:59.32] That light I never knowed
[01:03.89] And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
[01:08.73] I'm on the dark side of the road
[01:12.23] But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
[01:16.87] To try and make me change my mind and stay
[01:21.19] But we never did too much talking anyway
[01:24.40] But don't think twice, it's all right
[01:28.79]
[01:38.41] So it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
[01:43.42] Like you never done before
[01:46.92] And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
[01:52.00] I can't hear you anymore
[01:55.59] I'm a-thinking and a-wonderin' walking down the road
[01:59.96] I once loved a woman, a child, I'm told
[02:04.26] I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
[02:08.74] But don't think twice, it's all right
[02:13.22]
[02:24.91] So long honey, babe
[02:29.07] Where I'm bound, I can't tell
[02:33.81] Goodbye's too good a word, babe
[02:38.42] So I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
[02:42.24] I ain't a-saying you treated me unkind
[02:46.54] You could've done better but I don't mind
[02:51.11] You just kinda wasted my precious time
[02:55.15] But don't think twice, it's all right
[02:57.48]
