Sitting in the morning sun I'll be sitting in the evening calm Watching the ships rolling in And I'll watch 'em roll away again Sitting on the dock of the bay Watching the tide roll away Sitting on the dock of the bay, wasting time
I left my home in Georgia Headed for the Frisco Bay I had nothing to do for Lookes like nothings gonna come my way So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay Watching the tide roll away Sitting on the dock of the bay, wasting time
Look mama, nothings ganna change Everythings still remain the same I can't do what ten people tell me to do So I guess I'll remail the same
Sitting here resting my bones And this loneliness won't even leave me alone
Honey you do me wrong but still I'm crazy about you Stay away too long and I can't do without you Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more But each hurt makes my love stronger than before I know flowers go through rain But how can love go through pain
Ain't that peculiar A peculiar-arity Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be
You tell me lies that should be obvious to me I've been so much in love with you baby til I don't want to see That things you do and say are designed to make me blue It's a doggone shame my love for you makes all Your lies seem true But if the truth makes love last longer Why do lies make my love stronger
Ain't that peculiar Peculiar as can be Ain't that peculiar baby A peculiar-arity
I cried so much just like a child that's lost its home Maybe baby you think these tears I cry are tears of joy A child can cry so much until you do everything they say But unlike a child my tears don't help me to get my way I know love can last through years But how can love last through tears
Now ain't that peculiar baby A peculiar-arity Ain't it peculiar baby Peculiar as can be
Said I don't understand it baby It's so strange sometimes
It's just like heaven being here with you. You're like an angel, too good to be true. But after all, i love you, i do. Angel baby, my angel baby.
Uh, uh, i love you, uh, uh, i do, no one can love you like i do.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
When you are near me my heart skips a beat. I can hardly stand on my own two feet. Because i love you, i love you, i do. Angel baby, my angel baby.
Uh, uh, i love you, uh, uh, i do, no one can love you like i do.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
(yeh!)
Please, never leave me blue and alone. If you ever go, i'm sure you'll come back home. Because i love you, i love you, i do. Angel baby, my angel baby.
Uh, uh, i love you, uh, uh, i do, no one can love you like i do.

I got a girl named Bony Moronie, She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni, Ought to see her rock 'n' roll with her blue jeans on, She's not very fat just skin and bone. But I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree.
I told her mama and her papa too, Just exactly what I want to do, I want to get married on a night in June, And rock and roll by the light of a silvery moon, And I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree.
She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire, She's a real upsetter, she's a real live wire, Everybody turns when my baby walks by, She's something to see, she really catches the eye. That's why I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree.
That's why I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree.
If you ever change your mind, About leaving, leaving me behind, Oh, you'd better bring it to me, Bring your sweet lovin', Bring it on home to me. Yeh, (yeh) yeh, (yeh) yeh.
You know I laughed, Laughed when you left. But now I know, i've only hurt myself. Oh, you'd better bring it to me, Bring your sweet lovin', Bring it on home to me. Yeh, (yeh) yeh, (yeh) yeh, yeh, yeh.
Oh, you'd better bring it to me, Bring your sweet lovin', Bring it on home to me. Yeh, (yeh) yeh, (yeh) yeh.
You know i'll always be your slave, Until I'm dead and buried in my grave. Oh, you'd better bring it to me, Bring your sweet lovin', Bring it on home to me. Yeh, (yeh) yeh, yeh
