Proud Mary Lyrics

(John C. Fogerty)

Left a good job in the city
Working for the man both night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleep
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
I said I pumped a lot of tan in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of a city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen.

Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river.

I said you knowBrenda Lee - Proud Mary - http://motolyrics.com/brenda-lee/proud-mary-lyrics.html
That I'm rolling, rolling
You know that I'm
Rolling on the river.

--- Instrumental ---

Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river.

Now if you come down to the city
I said I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to live if you ain't got no money
People on the river that know how to give.

Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river.

You know I said that I'm rolling rolling
I'm rolling on the river
Now let's roll on, let's roll on...
