Proud Mary

[Intro:]

You know, every now and then

I think you might like to hear something from us

Nice and easy but there's just one thing

You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy

We always do it nice and rough

So we're going to take the beginning of this song

And do it easy

Then we're going to do the finish rough

This is the way we do 'Proud Mary'

And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Listen to the story

[Verse 1]

Left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleeping

Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

[Chorus]

Big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

[Verse 2]

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

I pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city

Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

[Chorus]

Big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

[Verse 1]

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]

If you come down to the river

I bet you going to find some people who live

And you don't have to worry if you got no money

People on the river are happy to give

[Chorus]

[Outro]

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
