Dock of the Bay (Re-recorded) - Little Richard

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

Ooh, I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the Frisco bay

Because I’ve had nothing to live for

And look like nothing’s going to come my way

So I’m just going to sit on the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooh, I’m sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time

Look like nothing’s going to 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

2000 miles I’ve roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Now I’m just going to sit at the dock of the bay

Watching the tide roll away

Ooh wee, I’m sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
