Sittin in the morning sun

I'll be sittin' when the evening come

Watching the ships roll in

And I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away, ouh

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco bay

I have nothing to live for

Look like nothings gonna come my way

So I'm just go sit on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

Look like nothings gonna change

Everything still remain the same

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

So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

Sittin' here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone, yes

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just go sit at the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away, ooh

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wasting time
