Proud Mary

John Fogerty

[Verse 1: Lady Solo]
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
But I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been

[Refrain: Everyone]
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

[Verse 2: Gentleman Solo]
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 riverboat queen

[Refrain: Everyone]
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Lady Solo]
Now If you come down to the river
Bet you 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

[Refrain: Everyone]
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Everyone]
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

[Outro: Everyone]
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

[Instrumental until end]
