I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comes
Watchin’ the ships roll in
Then I watch ’em roll away again
Watchin’ the tide, roll away
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time
And I headed for the Frisco Bay
‘Cause I’ve got nothin’ to live for
Looks like nothin’s gonna come my way, so
Watchin’ the tide roll away
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time
Everything seems to stay the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll remain the same
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
This two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
Now I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
I’m wastin’ time
I love this song. Otis was definitely a king. Thanks for the post.
