Peggy Lee - The Dock of the Bay (Sittin’ On) lyrics

Sittin' in the morning sun
(Morning sun, oh yeah)
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
(Evening comes now)
Watchin' the ships roll in
(Ships roll in, oh yeah)
And I watch 'em roll away again
(Out again now)

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' my time

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 gonna sit by the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' my time

Looks like nothing's gonna change
Everything is still the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to
I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin' here resting my bones
(Resting my bones)
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
(Leave me alone now)
Ha, ten thousand miles I roam (I roam)
Just to make this dock my home
(This dock is my home now)

Oh, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' by the dock of the bay wastin' time

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' by the dock of the bay
Watchin' all the tide roll away
