(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay

(album: Wichita Lineman - 1968)

Sitting in the morning sun I'll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in then I watch 'em roll away again
'Msitting on the dock of the bay watching the tide roll away
Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
I left my home in Georgia headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothing to live for looked like nothing's gonna come my way
'Msitting on the dock of the bay watching the tide roll away
Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
Looks like nothin'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 this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed just to make this dock my home
'Msitting on the dock of the bay watching the tide roll away
Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
