(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay

[Verse 1]
Sittin' in the morning sun (Morning sun, oh yeah)
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes (Evening comes now)
Watchin' the ships roll in (Ships roll in, oh yeah)
And I watch 'em roll away again (Out again now)

[Chorus]
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' my time

[Verse 2]
Left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I have nothing to live for
Look like nothing's gonna come my way

[Chorus]
So I'm gonna sit by the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' my time

[Bridge]
Looks like nothing's gonna change
Everything is still the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to
I guess I'll remain the same

[Verse 3]
Sittin' here resting my bones (Resting my bones)
And this loneliness won't leave me alone (Leave me alone now)
Ha, ten thousand miles I roam (I roam)
Just to make this dock my home (This dock is my home now)

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' by the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

[Outro]
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' by the dock of the bay
Watchin' all the tide roll away
