Sittin’ in the morning sun
I’ll be sittin’ when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I’ll watch ‘em roll away again
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the ‘Frisco Bay
‘Cause I had nothin’ to live for
Looks like nothing’s gonna come my way
So I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
Looks like nothing’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
Yes, I’m sitting here resting my bones
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
Now I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
