Sittin' in the morning sun

I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come

Watchin' the ships roll in

Then I watch 'em roll away again

Yeah I'm sittin on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Ooh just sittin' on the dock of the day

Watin' time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco bay

I have nothin' to live for

Look like nothin's gonna come my way

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Ooh I'm sittin' on the dock of the day

Wastin' time

Looks like nothin'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

Sittin' here restin' my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two housand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Ooh I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time
