Lyrics Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay - Franco Battiato, Anne Ducros

Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay

Sitting in the morning sun
I’ll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch them roll away again
Yeah I’m sitting on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay
Wasting time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'frisco bay
'cause I’ve had nothing to live for
Look like nothing’s gonna go my way
Look like nothing’s 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
(Listen)
Sitting here resting my bones
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
(Listen)
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home
Now I’m just gonna…
I’m just sitting here baby
All you’ve gotta do for me
Sitting on the dock of the bay baby
