Lyrics for Proud Mary
Left for a job in the city Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day Then I never lost one minute of sleepin' Worryin' 'bout the way things might've been Big wheels keep on turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis Pumped a lot of pain 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 wheels keep on turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river If you come down to the river Bet ya gonna find some people who live You don't have to worry, that you have no money People on the river, happy to give Big wheels keep on turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
