i cover the waterfront - john lee hooker lyrics

Loading...

i cover the waterfront, watchin’ the ship go by
i could see, everybody’s baby, but i couldn’t see mine
i could see, the ships pullin’ in, to the harbor
i could see the people, meetin’ their loved one
shakin’ hand, i sat there
so all alone, coverin’ the waterfront

and after a while, all the people
left the harbor, and headed for their destination
all the ships, left the harbor
and headed for their next destination
i sat there, coverin’ the waterfront

and after a while, i looked down the ocean
as far as i could see, in the fog, i saw a ship
it headed, this way, comin’ out the foam
it must be my baby, comin’ down
and after a while, the ship pulled into the harbor
rollin’ slow, so cripple
and my baby, stepped off board
i was still, coverin’ the waterfront

said “johnny, our ship had trouble, with the fog
and that’s why we’re so late, so late
comin’ home, comin’ down’
