(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watchin' the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide, roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I have nothin' to live for
Look like nothin' gonna come my way
So I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time

Look like nothin' 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
Sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this old dock my home
Now, I'm just sittin' in the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
