Sittin' in the morning sun 
Sittin' I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watchin' the ships roll in 
Then I watch 'em roll away again

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Wastin' time

I left my home down in Georgia 
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I've had nothing to live for 
Looks like nothing's gonna come my way

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Wastin' time

Looks like nothing's ever 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
Sittin' here restin' my bones 
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Yes two thousand miles I roamed 
Just too make this dock my home

Now I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Watchin' the tide roll away
Yes I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay 
Wastin' time
