Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay

Sittin' in the mornin' sun I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes Watching the ships roll in And I watch 'em roll away again Sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time I left my home in Georgia Headed for the Frisco Bay I've had nothin' to live for And it look like nothin's gonna come my way I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away I am sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time Look like nothin's gonna change Everything still remains the same I can't do what ten 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 Two thousand miles I roamed Just to make this dock my home I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, wasting time I can't do what ten people tell me to do So I guess I'll remain the same Watching the ships roll in And I watch 'em roll away again Sittin' on the dock of the bay --- Sitting on the Dock of the Bay - Franco Battiato and Anne Ducros
