Sittin' in the morning sun, I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watchin' the ships roll in, then I'll watch them roll away again
Sittin' on the dock of the bay, watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
That's my home in Georgia, headed for the Frisco Bay
Cause I have nothin' to lose
To live for, looks like nothin's gonna come my way
So I'll be sittin' on the dock of the bay, watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
On the dock of the bay
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
Sittin' in the morning sun, I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sittin' on the dock of the bay, watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Wastin' time
On the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
On the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Waste of time
