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'm sittin' on the dock of the bay   Watchin' the tide, roll away   Sittin' on the dock of the bay   Wastin' time      Left my home in Georgia   Headed for the Frisco Bay   I had nothin' to live for   Looks like nothin's gonna come my way      I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay   Gonna watch that tide roll away   I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay   Wastin' time      Looks like nothin's gonna change, no   Everything, everything remains the same   I can't do what ten people tell me to do   So I guess I'll just remain the same, yeah      Looks like nothin's ever gonna change   Lord everything, remains the same   I can't do what ten people tell me to do   So I guess I'll remain the same      I'm sittin' here restin' my bones   And this lonliness just won't leave me alone   Two thousand miles, I roam   Just to make this dock my home      I'm just gonna sit, on the dock of the bay   Gonna watch the tide, oh   Gonna watch the tide, roll away   [Incomprehensible]   Gonna waste, waste   [Incomprehensible]      Sittin' on the dock of the bay   Sittin'   Sittin' on the dock of the bay   Sittin'   Sittin' on the dock of the bay
