Sitting in the morning sun
I'll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I'll watch them roll away again
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
I left my home in Georgia
And I headed for the Frisco Bay
Cause I've got nothing to live for
Look like nothing's gonna come my way
Watching the tide roll away
Sitting on the darker bed
Look like nothing's going
Everything seems to stay the same.
I can't do what 10 people tell me to do.
So I guess I'll remain the same.
Sitting here resting my bones.
And this loneliness won't
Listen, for two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
Now I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tides roll away
Sitting on the dock of the bay
