Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay Songtext
von Peggy Lee

Sittin′ in the mornin' sun
I′ll be sittin' when the evenin' 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
Wastin′ my time

Left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I have nothin' to live for
Look like nothin′s gonna come my way

So, I'm gonna sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin′ the tide roll away
Sittin′ on the dock of the bay
Wastin' my time


Looks like nothing gonna change
Everything is still the same
I can′t do what ten people tell me do
I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin′ here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won′t leave me alone
For 10000 miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home
(This dock is my home)

Oh, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin′ the time roll away
Sittin′ by the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Sittin′ on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the time roll away
Sittin′ by the dock of the bay
Watchin' the time roll away
