"Sittin in the morning sun,
I`ll be sittin' when the evening come,
Watching the ships roll in,
And I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah,

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Watching the tide roll away, ouh,
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Wasting time"

Otis Redding

Rises as her Maker rose.

Burst at last from winter snows.

Going to A Go Go

Goin' to a go go
Goin' to a go go
Na na na na, yeah

Well, there's a brand new place I've found
Where people go from miles around
They come from everywhere
And if you drop in there
You might see anyone in town

Goin' to a go go, everybody's
Goin' to a go go, well, come on now
Don't you want to go, yeah -
