(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
 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
 Watchin' the tide, roll away
 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
 Wastin' time
 I left my home in Georgia
 And I headed for the Frisco Bay
 'Cause I've got nothin' to live for
 Looks like nothin's gonna come my way, so
 I'm just come sittin' on the dock of the bay
 Watchin' the tide roll away
 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
 Looks like nothin'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
 I'm sittin' here restin' my bones
 And this loneliness won't leave me alone
 This two thousand miles I roamed
 Just to make this dock my home
 Now I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
 Watchin' the tide roll away
 Sittin' on the dock of the bay
 Wastin' time
