Sergio Mendes - (Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay Lyrics






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

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
'Cuz I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothing's gonna come my way

So, I'm just gon' sit on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
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, listen

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this lonely mess won't leave me alone, listen
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home, now

I'm just gon' sit at the dock of a bay
Watchin' the tide roll away, ooh
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

    Memories of summer, top down driving in my then three year old '63 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible, her big Thunderbird 390 cid V8 purring and Sergio's singers doin' the same. Ahhh. Thanks so much for posting!

    Second best... after the original of Otis Redding

    Actually Sergio did an awesome job, Vocal Arrangement, a Masterpiece. Made it his own😎

    No wasting time!

    This is the best version of this song.

    Let's say, for certain moods it most definitively is! That is to say; same goes for the Otis version. I'd rather listen to that one when I'm blue. But in summer happytime, Sergio Mendes it is!
