Sittin' in the mornin' sun
|
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
|
Watching the ships roll in
|
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah
|
|
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
|
Watching the tide roll away
|
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
|
Wastin' time
|
|
I left my home in Georgia
|
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
|
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
|
And look like nothin's gonna come my way
|
|
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
|
Watching the tide roll away
|
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
|
Wastin' time
|
|
Look 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, yes
|
|
Sittin' here resting my bones
|
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
|
It's two thousand miles I roamed
|
Just to make this dock my home
|
|
Now, I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
|
Watching the tide roll away
|
Oooo-wee, sittin' on the dock of the bay
|
Wastin' time
|
|
[whistle]
