Don't Think Twice It's Alright (Bob Dylan cover)

John Martyn - London Conversation (1967)

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

It don't matter, anyhow

An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

If you don't know by now

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn

Look out your window and I'll be gone

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

Don't think twice, it's all right

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

That light I never knowed

An' it 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 and 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 did before

It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

I can't hear you anymore

I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' 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

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 kinda wasted my precious time

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

3:42 the woman was his ex wife. She said she divorced him because he put all of his emotion into his music and there was none left for her. Now, here he says, "I once loved a woman... I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul."

Having one of those days... I was supposed to go to a braai (barbeque), but my Spirit told me no ! You know, things you're supposed to do, but "don;t want to do" ! Well, "Don't think twice it's Alright" came to mind.... Bye the way, all you guys who dig John Martyn as much as I do, keep your eye peeled for the Tribute to John Martyn, called "Johnny Boy would Love This !". Just got it & it's bloomin' Great !" 2 cds & a DVD. One complaint. Just like John's life here, it's "too short !"

Sounds so like Nick drake there. I know he knew him but I never heard his influence like that before. Wow, Luv and Peace.

This song has been covered so many times over the years, but trust John Martyn to reveal the true beauty and almost unbearable sadness in it.
