Sittin' in the
|
mornin' sun
|
I'll be sittin' when
|
the evenin' comes
|
Watchin'
|
the ships roll in
|
Then I watch 'em
|
roll away again again
|
Sittin' on the dock
|
of the bay
|
Watchin' the tide~~~
|
roll~ away
|
Sittin'
|
on the dock
|
Of the bay
|
wastin' time~~~~
|
Left my home~~
|
in georgia~~~
|
Headed for the
|
frisco bay
|
I had
|
nothin' to live for
|
Looks like nothin's
|
gonna come my way
|
So~ I'm just
|
sittin' on the dock
|
Of the bay watchin'
|
the tide~~~ roll~ away
|
Sittin' on the dock
|
of the bay
|
Wastin' time~~~~
|
looks like nothin's
|
Gonna change~~
|
everything
|
Everything
|
remains the same~~~
|
I can't do
|
what ten people
|
Tell me to do~
|
so I guess
|
I'll just
|
remain the same~
|
Sittin' here
|
restin' my bones
|
And that's loney mays
|
all leave me along
|
Two thousand miles~~
|
I roam~~~~
|
Just to make this
|
dock my home
|
Now~ I'm just gonna
|
sit on the dock
|
Of the bay
|
watchin' the tide~~~
|
Roll~ away
|
sittin' on the dock
|
Of the bay
|
wastin' time~~~~
|
