A lot of people don't know the song has a story behind it. He relates to leaving Atlanta headed to San Francisco looking for opportunity working as a laborer on incoming outgoing ships at the dock. He went to the docks trying to get a job but was always turned down . The ships rolled away everyday still he had no job hence the term ("Sitting on the dock of the Bay wasting time")
His plans ran out of gas in the air All members died but one Otis was only 26 People ( Whites) claimed Otis forgot his pay checks ✅ And he boarded the plane on E Do u know when his wife viewed his body No one gave her his checks!!!! That man was going to finish this song in a studio out of town At the end he whistle. That was because he had no ending of this song He was going to rehearsals to finish Otis claimed he was sad!! He was hurt Why they did not give his wife his money?????
He is for sure one of the greatest love his songs
