Proud Mary
Left her good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleeping
And worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
(the river, the river, the river)
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never lost 1 minute of sleep
Until I hitched a side on the river boat Queen
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
(duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-whoah)
Well if you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry, you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling)
rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling)
rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleeping
And worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
(the river, the river, the river)
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never lost 1 minute of sleep
Until I hitched a side on the river boat Queen
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
(duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-whoah)
Well if you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry, you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling)
rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling)
rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling),
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
