Sittin in the mornin sun

Ill be sittin when the evenin come

Watching the ships roll in

Then Ill watch 'em roll away again, yeah

 

I'm sittin on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooo, Im just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin  time

 

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the 'Frisco Bay

I have nothing to live for

Look like nothin's gonna come my way

 

So Im just gonna sit on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooo, Im sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin  time

 

Look like, nothings gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I cant do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess Ill remain the same, yes

 

Sittin  here resting my bones

And this loneliness wont leave me alone

Its two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

 

Now Im just gonna sit at the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooo, Im sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin time
