Proud Mary
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
(This one's for you Artie)
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleep'n
I was worryin' about the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Uh the Proud Mary keep on burnin'
And we're rollin' (rollin')
Rollin' yeah (rollin'), rollin' on the river (oh rollin' on the river)
Said we're rollin' (rollin'), rollin' (rollin'), rollin' on the river (rollin' on the river)
So I left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleep'n
Worryin' about the way things might have been
