Sitting in the morning sun,
I'll be sitting when the evenings comes.
Watching the ships roll in then
I'll watch them roll away again. Yeah
Sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away.(Woo)
Just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time.
I left my home in Georgia,
Headed for the Fisco Bay.
I had nothing to live for,
Looks like nothing's gonna come my way. Oh
Just sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away.(Woo)
Just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time.
Looks like nothing'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.
Sitting here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone.
Two thousand miles
I roam
Just to make this dock my home.
Just sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away.(Woo)
Just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time. now that you're near
