Dock of the Bay
Lyrics
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
And looks like nothing's gonna come my way
Yeah I'm a-sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Looks like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
Well I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones
This loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
To make this Key West dock my home
Now I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sitting on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away dear
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
On this dock watchin' that Key West sunset
Wishin' I had you here by my side
