(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay

(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay

Sittin’ in the mornin’ sun
I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ come
Watchin’ the ships roll in
Then I watch ’em roll away again, yeah

I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away, ooh
I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay
I have nothin’ to live for
And look like nothin’s gonna come my way

So I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away, ooh
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time

Look like nothin’s gonna change
Ev’rything still remains the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll remain the same, listen

Sittin’ here restin’ my bones
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
It’s two thousand miles, I roam
Just to make this dock my home

Now I’m just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away, ooh wee
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time
