Sitting'in the mornin
g'sun
i'll be sitting'when the evenin com
es
watc hin the ships rol
l in
then I watch'em roll away ag
ain
sit ting on the dock of the
bay
watchin th e tide roll away
just s ittin on the dock of the ba y, wastin' tim e
I left my home in Georgia
headed for the frisco bay
'Cause I've nothing to live for
look like nothing's gonna come my way
so I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
watchin the tide roll away
just sittin on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
look li ke nothin g gonna change
ev'ry th ing stil l remains the sa
me
I c an't do what t en people tell me to do
so I guess I'll rema in the same
sittin here resting my bones
and the lonelyness won't leave me alone
it's two thousand miles I roam
just to make this dock my bay
so I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
watchin the tide roll away
just sittin on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
