Sitting On the Dock of the Bay

Sittin' in the morning sun

I'll be sittin' when the evening comes

Watching the ships roll in

And I watch them roll away again

So I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And watch the tide roll away, ooh

I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And waste my time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco Bay

I have nothing to live for

And look like nothing's gonna come my way

So I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And watch the tide roll away, ooh

I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And waste my 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

Sittin' here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

So I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And watch the tide roll away, ooh

I'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

And waste my time
