(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay - Otis Redding

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.

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
watching the tide roll away.
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time.

I left my home in Georgia
headed for the 'Frisco Bay.
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
and look like nothin's gonna' come my way.

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
watching the tide roll away.
Ooo, 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, yes!

Sittin' here resting my bones
and this loneliness won't leave me alone.
It's two thousand miles I roamed
just to make this dock my home.

Now I'm just gon' sit on the dock of the bay
watching the tide roll away.
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
wastin' time.
