(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay / Proud Mary - Straight No Chaser

Sittin' in the morning sun

I’ll be sittin' when the evening comes

Watching the ships roll in

Then I watch them roll away again, yeah

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia

I’m headed for the Frisco Bay

I’ve had nothing to live for

Like nothing’s gonna come my way

I’m just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

Looks like nothing’s gonna change

Everything remains the same

I can’t do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I’ll remain the same

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

Left a good job in the city

Workin' for the Man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleepin'

Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been

Big wheel keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

And we rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of a city

'Til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

Rollin'
