Proud Mary lyrics

Left a good job in the city

Workin' for the Man every night and day

But I never lost a minute of sleepin'

Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been

[chorus]

Big wheel 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 tane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of a city

'Til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

[repeat chorus]

If you come down to the River

Bet you're 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

[repeat chorus]
