Letra
[Verse 1]
Sittin' in the morning sun
I'll be sittin' when the evening come
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away, ooh
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
[Verse 2]
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco Bay
I've had nothing to live for
Look like nothing's gonna come my way
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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, listen
[Verse 3]
Sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone, listen
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home, now
[Chorus]
I'm just gon' sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away, ooh
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
