I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come

Watchin' the ships roll in

Then i'll watch 'em roll away again ...Yea



Im sittin' on the dock of a bay

Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh

Im just sittin' on a dock of a bay

Wastin' time



I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco bay

Coz i have nuthin' to live for

And look like nuthin's gonna come my way



So...Im just gonna sit on a dock of a bay

Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh

Im sittin' on a dock of a bay

Wastin' time



Look like nothings 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

And this loneliness won't leave me alone ...listen

Two thousand miles I rome

Just to make this dock my home



Now... Im just gonna sit at the dock of a bay

Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh

Im sittin' on a dock of a bay

Wastin' time
