Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay

Sitting in the morning sun

i'll be sitting when the evening comes

watching the ships roll in

and i watch 'em roll away again

Sitting on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

sitting on the dock of the bay

wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

headed for the 'frisco bay

i had nothin to live for

and i look like nothing's

gonna come my way

Sitting on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

i'm sitting on the dock of the bay

wasting 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

Sitting here resting my bones

and this loneliness won't leave me alone

two thousand miles i roamed

just to make this dock my home

Sitting on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

sitting on the dock of the bay

wasting time

I can't do what ten people

tell me to do

so i guess i'll remain the same

Watching the ships roll in

and i watch 'em roll away again

sitting on the dock of the bay
