Sittin' in the mornin' sunI'll be sittin' when the evenin' comesWatchin' the ships roll inThen I watch 'em roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bayWatchin' the tide, roll,just roll awaySittin' on the dock of the bayWastin' time
I left my home in GeorgiaHeaded for the Frisco BayI had nothin' to live forLooks like nothin's gonna come my way
Just sittin' on the dock of the bayWatching the tide roll,just roll awayI'm sittin' on the dock of the bayWastin' my precious,precious time,oh,yeah
Looks like nothin's gonna changeEverything,I mean everything remains the sameI won't do what ten people tell me to doSo I guess I'll remain,I'll remain the same
It looks like nothin's ever gonna changeEverything,everything remains the sameI won't do what ten people tell me to doSo I guess I'll remain,I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bonesThis loneliness won't leave me aloneTwo thousand miles, I roamJust to make this dock my homeI'm sitting on the dock of the bayWatching the tide roll,just roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bayWasting precious timeOh,yeahGo on sit(Sittin' on the dock of the bay)Oh,oh,yeahOh,oh,yeahI'm gonna sit on the dock of the bayI'm gonna watch the tide rollJust rollI'm gonna sit,I'm gonna sitOh,oh,oh, oh,oh,oh,oh,ohI'm gonna sit(on the dock of the bay)
