Sittin' in the morning sun, I'll be sittin' with Eve and Kime
Watchin' the ships roll in, and I'll watch her roll away again
I'm just sittin' on the deck of a bay, watchin' the tide roll away
Oh, I'm just sitting on the dock of a bay, wasted time.
I left my home in Georgia, headed for the Frisco Bay.
I have nothing to live for, look like nothing's gonna come my way.
So I'm just sittin' on the dock of a bay Watchin' the tide roll away
Ooh I'm just sittin' on the dock of a bay Wastin' time
Look like nothing's gonna change Everything still remains the same
I can't do what them people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes
Sitting here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
2,000 miles I'll roll
Just to make this dark my home
Now I'm just sitting on the dock of a bay
Watching the time roll away
Ooh, I'm just sitting on the dock of a bay
Waste of time
