(sittin' On)the Dock Of The Bay Lyrics - The Ultimate Performance: When A Man Loves A Woman - Percy Sledge

Sittin' in the mornin' sun 

I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes 

Watchin' the ships roll in 

Then I watch 'em roll away again 

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay 

Watchin' the tide roll away 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay 

Wastin' time 

Left my home in Georgia 

Headed for the Frisco Bay 

I had nothin' to live for 

Looks like nothin's gonna come my way 

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay 

Gonna watch the tide roll away 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay 

Wastin' time 

Looks like nothin's gonna change 

Everything, everything remains the same 

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

So I guess I'll remain the same 

Looks like nothin's gonna change 

Lord, everything 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 

But this loneliness won't leave me alone 

Two thousand miles, I roam 

Just to make this dock my home 

I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay 

I'm gonna watch the tide, I'm gonna watch the tide roll away 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay 

Wastin' time 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay, sittin' 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay, sittin' 

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
