A writer must “know and have an ever-present consciousness that this world is a world of fools and rogues… tormented with envy, consumed with vanity; selfish, false, cruel, cursed with illusions… He should free himself of all doctrines, theories, etiquettes, politics…” —Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?). “The nobility of the writer's occupation lies in resisting oppression, thus in accepting isolation” —Albert Camus (1913-1960). “What are you gonna do” —Bertha Brown (1895-1987).
It ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don’t matter anyhow Ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe If you don’t know by now When the rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window, and I’ll be gone You’re the reason I’m traveling on Don’t think twice, it’s all right
It ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe That light I never knew Ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe I’m on the dark side of the road Still I wish there was something you would do or say To try to make me change my mind instead We never did too much talkin’ anyway Don’t think twice, it’s all right
I’m walkin’ down that long, lonesome road, babe Where I’m bound I can’t tell But goodbye’s too good a word, gal 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 kind of wasted my precious time Don’t think twice, it’s all right
It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal Like you never did before It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal I can’t hear you anymore I’m thinkin’ and wondering, all down the road I once loved a woman, a child I am told I gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul But don’t think twice, it’s all right
Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right by Bob Dylan
ReplyDeleteIt ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don’t matter anyhow
Ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don’t know by now
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window, and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m traveling on
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
It ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe
That light I never knew
Ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe
I’m on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was something you would do or say
To try to make me change my mind instead
We never did too much talkin’ anyway
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
I’m walkin’ down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I’m bound I can’t tell
But goodbye’s too good a word, gal
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 kind of wasted my precious time
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
Like you never did before
It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
I can’t hear you anymore
I’m thinkin’ and wondering, all down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I am told
I gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right
Excellent!
