Sitting in the morning sun
Watchin' the ships roll in
I'll be watchin' all the waves begin
Watchin' my time roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay,
I left my home in Georgia
I headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothing till before
Look like nothing's gonna come my way
Sitting on a dock all day,
Watching my time roll away
Sitting on a dock all day, babe
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what people tell me to do
So I guess I remain the same
May I rest through my bones
All this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed,
just to make this dog my home
I'm sittin' on a dog all day,
He is sitting on a dock all day,
