I cover the waterfront
Watchin` the ship go by
I could see everybody`s baby
But I couldn`t see mine
I could see the ships pullin` in
To the harbor
I could see the people
Meeting their loved one
Shakin` hand
I sat there
So all alone
Coverin` the waterfront
And after a while
All the people
Left the harbor
And headed for their destination
All the ships
Left the harbor
And headed for their next destination
I sat there
Coverin` the waterfront
And after a while
I looked down the ocean
As far as I could see - in the fog
I saw a ship
It headed this way
Comin` out the foam
It must be my baby
Comin` down
And after a while
The ship pulled into the harbor
Rollin` slow
So triple (?)
And my baby
Stepped off board
I was still
Coverin` the waterfront
