Dock Of The Bay Lyrics

Jacob Miller

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
And I watch 'em roll away again, oh

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wonder when I'll be on my way

I left my home in Trench Town
Headed for the dock of the bay
I ain't got nothing to live for
Looks like nothin's gonna come my way

Oh, sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wonder when I'll be on my way

Looks like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I won't do what the Babylon want I to do
So I gotta the same

I left my home in Trench Town
Headed for the dock of the bay
I ain't got nothing to live for
Ethiopia's got to come my way, oh

Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wonder when I'll be on my way

(..)

Ethiopia's got to come my way
Where else can our children really play?
Ethiopia's got to come my way
Where else can our children really play?
