Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way
things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
And we're 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 the city
'Til I hitched a ride
on a river boat queen
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin,
Rollin on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin,
Rollin on the river
(Music changes tempo)
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day
But never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way
things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Do do do do
Yeahhhh
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of pane 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 wheel keep on turnin
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
We Rollin, we rollin Rollin on the river
Yes we're Rollin, rollin,
rollin on the river
Do do do do
Ohhhhh yeahhhhhh
If you come down to the river
Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause
you have if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Yeahhhh ohhhhh
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
