You know, every now and then I think you might like to hear something from us Nice and easy But there's just one thing (I left a good job in the city) You see we never ever do nothing (Working for the man every night and day) Nice easy
We always do it nice and rough (And I never lost one minute of sleeping) (And I was worrying 'bout the way things might have been) So we're gonna take the beginning of this song And do it easy (Big wheel keep on turning) Then we're gonna do the finish rough (Proud Mary keep on burning) This is the way we do Proud Mary
And we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river Listen to the story
Left a good job in the city (Down in the city) Working for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleeping I was worrying 'bout the way the things might have been
(You know that) Big wheel keep on turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling (Rolling) Rolling yeah (Rolling) Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis (You know I have) Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans But I never saw all the good side of the city Till I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
(You know the) Big wheel keep on turning Proud Mary keep on burning And we're rolling (Rolling) Rolling yeah (Rolling) Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)
Say we're rolling (Rolling) Rolling yeah [ Tina Turner Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] (Rolling) Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)
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 the 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, river Alright
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 Till I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning (Turning) Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning) And we're rolling, rolling We rolling on the river I tell we're rolling, rolling Rolling on the river, river Alright
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 (Turning) Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning) And we're rolling, I'd be rolling I'd be rolling on the river Tell me one more time (Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river) Alright, alright
