sh**tin' in the mornin' sun, I'll be sh**tin' when the evenin' comes Watching the sh**s roll in, then I watch 'em float away again, yeah I'm sh**tin' on the dock of the bay, watching the tide roll away Oo, I'm just sh**tin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time I left my home in Mayfair, headed for the 'Hastings Bay I have nothing to live for, it look like nothin's gonna come my way So, I'm just gon' sh** on the dock of the bay, watching the tide roll away Oo, I'm just sh**tin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
Look like nothing's gonna change. Everything still remains the same I can't do what ten sailors tell me to do, so I guess I'll remain the same, yes I'm sittin' here beatin' my bone, and this fisherman won't leave me alone, yes Two thousand miles I roamed just to make this-a dock my home Now, I'm just gon' sh** at the dock of the bay, watching the turd roll away Oo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time
