Lyrics

Sittin' in the mornin' sun

I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come

Watching the ships roll in

And I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooh, 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 nothing's gonna come my way

So I'm just gon' sit on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooh, 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, yeah

Sittin' here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

2,000 miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just gon' sit at the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooh-wee, sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time
