(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay

Sittin' in the morning sun (Morning sun, oh yeah)

I'll be sittin' when the evening comes (Evening comes now)

Watchin' the ships roll in (Ships roll in, oh yeah)

And I watch 'em roll away again (Out again now)

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' my time

Left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco Bay

I have nothing to live for

Look like nothing's gonna come my way

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

Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' my time

Looks like nothing's gonna change

Everything is still the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to

I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin' here resting my bones (Resting my bones)

And this loneliness won't leave me alone (Leave me alone now)

Ha, ten thousand miles I roam (I roam)

Just to make this dock my home (This dock is my home now)

Oh, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' by the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' by the dock of the bay

Watchin' all the tide roll away
