Dock of the Bay

Otis Redding, Steve Cropper

[Verse 1]
Sitting in the morning sun
I'll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch them roll away again, yeah

[Chorus]
I'm sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

[Verse 2]
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay
Because I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothing's going to come my way

[Chorus]
So I'm just going to sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh, I'm sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

[Verse 3]
Look like nothing's going to 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, listen
Sitting here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone, listen
2000 miles I've roamed
Just to make this dock my home

[Chorus]
Now I'm just going to sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooh wee, I'm sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
