Sittin´ in the mornin´ sun
I´ll be sittin´ when the evenin´ comes
Watchin´ the ships roll in
Then I watch ´em roll away again
I´m sittin´ on the dock of the bay

Watchin´ the tide, roll away
Sittin´ on the dock of the bay
Wastin´ time

Left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothin´ to live for
Looks like nothin´s gonna come my way
I´m just sittin´ on the dock of the bay
Watchin´ the tide roll away
Sittin´ on the dock of the bay, wastin´ time

Looks like nothin´s gonna change
Everything, everything remains the same
I can´t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I´ll just remain the same

I´m sittin´ here restin´ my bones

Two thousand miles, I roam
Just to make this dock my home
I´m just gonna sit, on the dock of the bay
Watchin´ the tide roll away
Sittin´ on the dock of the bay
Wastin´ time
