The Dock Of The Bay lyrics

Sittin` in the morning sun
I`ll be sittin` when the evening comes
Watchin` 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
Wasting time

I left my home back in Fiji
Headin` for the Turtle Bay
I had nothing to live for
Look like nothing`s gonna come my way

Sittin` on the dock of the bay
Watchin` the tide roll away
Sittin` on the dock of the bay
Wasting time

Looks like ain`t nothin` 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

I`m sittin` here restin` my bones
And this loneliness won`t leave me alone
Six thousand miles I`ve flown
Just to make this rock my home

Sittin` on the dock of the bay
Watchin` the tide roll away
Sittin` on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
