(Sittin’ On The) Dock Of The Bay

[Verse 1]
Sittin’ in the mornin’ sun
I was sittin’ when the evening comes
Watchin’ the ships roll in
And then I watch them roll away again

[Chorus]
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I’m watchin’ the tide roll away
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I’m wasting time

[Verse 2]
I left my home in Georgia
And I headed for the ’Frisco Bay
’Cause I had nothin’ to live for
It looks like nothin’s gonna come my way

[Chorus]
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I’m wastin’ time

[Verse 3]
Looks like nothing's gonna change, no
Everything still remains the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to
So I guess I’ll remain just the same

[Verse 4]
Oh I’m sittin’ here restin’ my bones
Oh this loneliness won’t leave me alone
There’s two thousand miles i’d ever roam
Just to make this old dock my home

[Chorus]
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I’m wastin’ time

[Verse 5]
Looks like nothin’s ever gonna change
Everything still remains just the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll remain just the same

[Verse 6]
Oh I’m sittin’ here restin’ my bones
Oh this loneliness won’t leave me, leave me alone
There’s two thousand miles I’d ever roam
You know, to make this old dock my home

[Chorus]
So I'm sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I'm watchin’ the tide roll away
I'm sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Just wastin’ time
Wastin’ time
Wastin’ time
Wastin’ time
