"Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay" lyrics

"Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay"
(originally by Otis Redding)

Sittin' in the morning sun
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch them roll away again

Just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I've had nothing to live for
Seems like nothing's gonna come my way

So I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' 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

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

Sittin' on the dock of a bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
I'm just gonna sit here on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
