Franco Battiato, Anne Ducros - Sitting on the Dock of the Bay Lyrics

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
Watching the ships roll in
And I watch 'em roll away again
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I've had nothin' to live for
And it look like nothin's gonna come my way
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I am sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time

Look like nothin's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, wasting time

I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same

Watching the ships roll in
And I watch 'em roll away again

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
