Left a good job in the city Working for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleeping Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis I 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 the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river Say, we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river
I left a good job in the city Working for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute of 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 Say, we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river, the river
I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis And I 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 the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling, so we're rolling And we're rolling on the river I tell you, we're rolling, rolling We're rolling on the river
If you come down to the river I bet you 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 turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling and we're rolling And we're rolling on the river Tell me one more time (Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)
(Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river) (Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river) (Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river) (Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)
