Otis Redding - Sitting on the Dock of the Bay lyrics

Verse 1: 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 Verse 2: 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 Bridge: 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 Verse 3: 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 Outro: 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 k** And spill my sadness onto the page to hopefully make us feel Better
