Sitting in the morning sun
I\'ll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
And I watch \'em roll away again

[Chorus]
Sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I\'m just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the \'Frisco bay
\'Cause I had nothin to live for
And look like nothing\'s gonna come my way

So I\'m just...
[Chorus]

Look 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

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...
[Chorus]

(Whistle)
