The Dock Of The Bay

Sitting in the morning sun

I'll be sitting when the evening comes

Watching the ships roll in

Then I watch them roll away again



Yeah I'm sitting 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've had nothing to live for

Look like nothing's gonna go my way



[Repeat chorus]



Look 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



(Listen)

Sitting here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

(Listen)

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just gonna...



[Repeat chorus]



I'm just sitting here baby

All you've gotta do for me

Sitting on the dock of the bay baby
