The Dock of the Bay (From "Platoon") |
| Sittin’in the morning sun |
| I’ll be sittin’when the evening comes |
| watching the ships roll in and then I watch them roll away again, yeah |
| I’m sittin’on the dock of the bay |
| watching the tide roll away |
| I’m sittin’on the dock of the bay |
| wasting time |
| I left my home in Georgia |
| headed for the Frisco Bay |
| because I’ve had nothin to live for |
| and look like nothin’s gonna come my way |
| So I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay |
| watchin’the tide roll away |
| I’m sittin’on the dock of the bay |
| wasting time |
| Looks like nothin’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 |
| Sitting here resting my bones |
| And this lonliness won’t leave me alone |
| It’s 2,000 miles I’ve roamed |
| Just to make this dock my home now |
| I’m just gonna sit at the dock of the bay |
| watchin’the tide roll away |
| I’m sittin’on the dock of the bay |
| wasting time |
