Sittin On The Dock of the Bay by Jim Ed Brown Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

[Verse 2]
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
I've had nothing to live for
Looks like nothin's gonna come my way

[Chorus]
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
[Bridge]
Looks like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten peoplе tell me to do
So I guess I'll rеmain the same

[Verse 3]
Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
This two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

[Chorus]
Now, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Yeah I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
