Sittin'
in the mornin', son
I'll be sittin' when the
evening comes
Watchin' the ships roll in
Then watch them roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia,
headed for the Frisco Bay
I've got nothing to live on,
and nothing's gonna come my way
I'm sitting on the dock of the bay,
watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Looks like nothing's
gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten
people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same
Looks like nothing's
gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones
This loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home, yeah
Sittin' on the dock of the bay,
watchin' the tide roll away.
Sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time.
Sittin' in the mornin' sun,
I'll be sittin' till the even
in' comes.
Watchin' the ships roll in
And watch them roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide slip away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time
