I'm sittin' on the boat dock
Playin' on my bongo
Sittin' on it all day long
I'm sittin' on the boat dock
Playin' on my bongo
Playin' on it all day long
Just watching the tide
Waiting for you to come home
Now the sun is sinking
Slowly out of sight
Now the sun is sinking
Slowly out of sight
Until you come home
I'll keep sittin' all night
Now the moon is shining
From up above
Now the moon is shining
From up above
It's shining on me
Because I miss the one
I love
I see the moon, and the moon sees me
Please mister moon, don't tell on me
Because I'm sittin' on the boat dock
Playin' on my bongo
Waiting for my baby, to come home
I've been sittin' here
Ever since you've been gone
