Dock of the Bay (Remastered 2024)

Sitting in the morning sun

I'll be sitting when the evening comes

I'm watching the ships roll in

Then I watch them roll away again

I'm sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

I'm sitting on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

I headed for the 'Frisco bay

I had nothing to live for

Looks like nothing's gonna come my way

Oh, I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

I'm sitting on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

Looks like nothing's gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to

So I guess I'll remain the same

Looks like nothing's gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to

So I guess I'll remain the same

Sitting here resting my bones

This loneliness won't leave me alone

Just two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Oh, I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

I'm sitting on the dock of the bay

Wasting time

Well, I'm sitting (Sitting on the dock of the bay)

Lord, sitting

Well, I'm just sitting (Sitting on the dock of the bay)

Said, Lord (Sitting)

And, Lord, I'm sitting on the dock of the bay
