Proud Mary Lyrics
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy(Ike: Left a good job in the city) But there`s just one thing
You see, we never ever do nothing
(Working for the man every night and day) Nice and easy
(And I never lost one minute of
sleeping) We always do it nice and rough
(Worrying `bout the way that things might have been) So
we`re gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy
(Big wheel keep on turning) But 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), ooh,
Rolling (rolling), ooh
Rolling on the river (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
(Working for the man every night and day)
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
(And I never lost one minute of sleeping)
(I was worrying `bout the way that things might have
been) Worrying `bout the way that things might have been
(You know that big wheel keep on turning) Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning (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
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, yeah
Rolling on the river
Say, we`re rolling, rolling, yeah
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
All right

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
All right, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh
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
Yeah, all right, ooh, yeah
Yeah, all right, ah-ha, whoo
Yeah
All right, now
Yeah, rolling, rolling on the river
Said they`re rolling, oh, rolling, yeah, rolling on the river
I tell you they`re rolling, a-rolling, a-rolling on the river
Yeah, all right, ah-ha
