I cover the waterfront, watchin' sea sea sea I cover the waterfront I could see, the ships, Comin' in to the harbor, (harbor, harbor) I could see see see, the people gettin' on board I could not see see, my love, got on board I cover the waterfront And after a while, all the ships left the harbor And headed for their next destination I cover the waterfront
I waited all night long in the pouring rain (I did too) Searchin' for my baby I was drinking black coffey from a paper cup And smokin' fourty cigarettes And when the sun in the sky Came up really in the morning I said lord lord lord, lord lord lord, Lord bring my baby back home Bring my baby back I still coverin' the waterfront"
I cover the waterfront Watchin' for my baby to come down... And after a while I saw a ship Comin' down the ocean Out of the fall rollin' so so so slow. It must be (must be) my baby comin' down.
I cover the waterfront and I see my baby, Comin' down, (comin' down, can't wait). I said from the bottom of my heart "Thank you, Lord for bringing me my baby back home to me." I've been so lonely, sittin' in my room, By my telephone, yeah. I said "Baby, welcome back home, welcome back"
Mmm... Lord lord lord...mmm.... After a while the ship pulled in to the harbor And she run run run to my arms to my arms Said "Johny, I've been waiting so long so long to come down I know' I know you've been waiting for me".
