Sitting on the Dock of the Bay (Live) Lyrics

Sitting on the Dock of the Bay (Live) - Percy Sledge

Written by:O. Redding/S. Cropper

Sitting in the morning sun

I'll be sitting when the evening comes

Watching the ships roll in

And I watching 'em roll away again

Sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco Bay

I had nothing to live for

Looks like nothings gonna come my way

So I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

Looks like nothings gonna change

Everything remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same

Sitting here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two thousand miles I roam

Just to make this dock my home

Sitting on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

 

Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
