Proud Mary
Lyrics
Alright
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
But I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Ooh
Ooh
Oh yeah
I said
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Ooh
Ooh
Keep on rollin', yeah, alright
If you come down to the river
Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin'
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Keep on rollin', Keep on rollin', rollin' on the river
On the river
