Proud Mary

Lyrics

You know, every now and then I think you might like to hear
 Somethin' from us, nice and easy
 There's just one thing you see
 We never, ever do nothin' nice and easy
 We always do it nice and rough
 But we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy
 But then we're gonna do the finish rough
 That's the way we do Proud Mary
 And we're rolling (Ooh), rolling (Ooh), rolling on the river
 Listen to the story
 Left a good job in the city (Down in the city)
 Workin' for the man every night and day
 And I never lost one minute of sleep
 (And I was) Worryin' about the way that things might have been
 (You know that) Big wheel keep on turnin
 Proud Mary keep on burnin'
 And we're rollin' (Rollin')
 Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)
 Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
 (You know I) And I pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans
 But I never saw the good side of that city until I hitched
 A ride on the river boat Queen
 (You know the) Big wheel keep on turnin'
 Proud Mary keep on burnin'
 And we're rollin' (Rollin')
 Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)
 Said we're rollin' (Rollin')
 Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)
 ♪
 I left a good job in the city
 Workin' for the man every night and day
 And I never lost one minute of sleep
 Worryin' about the way things might have been
 Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
 Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
 Rollin'
 Rollin', rollin' on the river
 Said we're rollin'
 Rollin', rollin' on the river
 ♪
 Oh I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
 And I pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans
 But I never saw the good side of the city until I hitched
 A ride on the river boat Queen
 Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
 Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
 And we're rollin'
 Said we're rollin', we're rollin' on the river
 I tell ya we're rollin'
 Rollin', we're rollin' on the river
 ♪
 Alright, yeah
 Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
 ♪
 If you come down to the river
 I betcha you're gonna find some people who live
 And you don't have to worry
 If you got no money
 People on the river are happy to give
 Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
 Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
 And we're rollin'
 And we're rollin'
 And we're rollin' on a river
 Tell me one more time
 Rollin' (Yeah)
 Rollin' (Alright)
 Rollin' on the river (Ooh yeah)
 ♪
 Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river (Yeah, alright now)
 We're rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
 Said we're rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
 I tell you we're rollin', we're rollin', we're rollin' on the river
 Yeah, alright, uh-huh
