Sitting in the morning sun
I′ll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then watch them roll away again
Sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I've got nothing to live for
And nothin′s gonna come my way
I'm sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, 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
Sitting here resting my bones
This loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
I′m sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
Sitting in the morning sun
I'll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then watch them roll away again
I′m sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
I'm sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
