Chant: The Dock of the bay
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, (Yeah)
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay,
Watchin’ the tide roll away.
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay…..Wastin’ time
I left my home in Georgia,
Headed for the ‘Frisco Bay.
I have nothing to live for,
Look like nothing’s gonna come my way, (so I’m just gonna)
Refrain
Look like, nothing gonna change,
Ev’ry thing 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 roam,
Just to make this dock my home, (now I’m just)
