Waterfront Songtext

Waterfront Songtext
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, meetin' 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 cripple
And my baby, stepped off board
I was still, coverin' the waterfront
Said, "Johnny, our ship had trouble with the fog
And that′s why we're so late, so late
Comin' home, comin′ down′
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, meetin' 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 cripple
And my baby, stepped off board
I was still, coverin' the waterfront
Said, "Johnny, our ship had trouble with the fog
And that′s why we're so late, so late
Comin' home, comin′ down′
