Proud Mary
Looking for a job in the city
Working for The Man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of my sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling 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
Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
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
The people on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Looking for a job in the city
Working for The Man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of my sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
