(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay Lyrics

Sittin’ in the mornin’ sun

I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comes

Watchin’ the ships roll in

Then I watch ’em roll away again

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 had nothin’ to live for

Looks like nothin’s gonna come my way

I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay

Watchin’ the tide roll away

I'm sittin’ on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time, yeah

Looks like nothin’s gonna change, no

Everything, everything remains the same

I can’t do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I’ll just remain the same, yeah

Looks like nothing ever gonna change

Lord everything remains the same

I can't do what 10 people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same

I’m sittin’ here restin’ my bones

and this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Lord, I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay

Oh, I'm gonna watch the tide roll,

gonna watch the tide roll away

on the dock of the bay

gonna waste, waste, oh,

I'm gonna, I'm just gonna sit

gonna sit (sittin' on the dock of the bay)

Ohhhhhhhh,

(sittin' on the dock of the bay)

Ohhhh-ohhhh (sittin') ohhhhhh

(sittin' on the dock of the bay)
