lyrics

Sittin' In The Morning Sun
I'll be Sittin' When The Evening Comes
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again,
I'm Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay
Watching The Tide Roll Away
I'm Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay
Wastin' Time

I Left My Home In Kansas
Headed For The Tampa Bay
Cause I Don't Have Nothing To Live For
And Look Like Nothing's
Gonna Come My Way
So I'll Just
Sit On The Dock Of The Bay
Watching The Tide Roll Away
I'm Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay
Wastin' Time

Looks 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

Sittin' Here Resting My Bones
And This Loneliness
Won't Leave Me Alone, Listen
10,000 miles I've roamed
Just To Make This Dock My Home
So I'm Gon'
Sit At The Dock Of The Bay
Watching The Tide Roll Away
Ooh Wee
I'm Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay
Wastin' Time

And as I'm sitting, I spitting these rhythms to escape
Cause this system is getting grimaces on my face
And sometimes I feel alone, not always right at home
So I just start singing blues regardless of my tone
Cause I can't always grab the phone to call someone to ease my mind
Don't always remember prayer when I'm caught in the grind
Depression is very real, but time I'd rather kill
And spill my sadness onto the page to hopefully make us feel
Better
