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 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
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~~~~
looks like nothin's
Gonna change~~
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~
Sittin' here
restin' my bones
And that's loney mays
all leave me along
Two thousand miles~~
I roam~~~~
Just to make this
dock my home
Now~ I'm just gonna
sit on the dock
Of the bay
watchin' the tide~~~
Roll~ away
sittin' on the dock
Of the bay
wastin' time~~~~
