On The Dock Of The Bay - The Dells

Sitting in the morning sun

I’ll be sitting till the evening come

Watching the ship roll in

And I’ll watch em roll away again, yeah

(I'm sitting on the dock of the bay)

Watching the tide (tide roll away)

Ooh, Lord, sitting on the dock of the bay

Wasting time, time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco Bay

I have nothing to live for

Seems like nothing’s

Gonna come my way

Let me hear you say

(I'm sitting on the dock of the bay)

Watching the tide (tide roll away)

Ooh, Lord, sitting on the dock of the bay

And I’m just wasting time

Look like nothing’s gonna change

Everything remains the same

I can’t do what ten people

Wants me to do now

So I guess I’ll remain the same

Hey, sitting here resting my bones

Cause this loneliness won’t leave me alone

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Let me hear you all say now

(Sitting on the dock of the bay)

Watching the tide (tide roll away)

Ooh, Lordy, Lord, now

Sitting on the dock of the bay

And I’m wasting time, ooh
