sittin' on the dock of the bay

Singer: drifters, the

sittin' in the mornin' sun

i'll be sittin' till the evenin' comes

watching your ship roll in

and i watch 'em roll away again

hey

i'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

ooh lord

sittin' on the dock of the bay

wastin' time

i left my home in georgia

headed for the 'frisco bay

lord ya

i had nothing to live for

seems like nothin's gonna come my way

hey

i'm gonna sit on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

ooh yeah

sittin' on the dock of the bay

wastin' time

looks like nothin's gonna change

everything remains the same

i can't do what ten people tell me to do

so i guess i'll just remain the same

sittin' here resting my bones

'cause this loneliness won't leave me alone

no honey

two thousand miles i roamed

just to make this dock my home

hey

i'm gonna sit at the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

ooh lord

sittin' on the dock of the bay

wastin' time
