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
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
'Cause I′ve had nothin' to live for
And looks like nothin′s gonna come my way
Yeah, I'm a-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 still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I′ll remain the same
Sittin' here restin′ my bones
This loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I′ve roamed
To make this Key West dock my home
And I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin′ the tide roll away
Sittin′ on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sittin′ on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin′ on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
I′m just, uh
Watchin' that Key West sunset
Wishin' I had you here by my side
