Lyric Proud Mary
(John C. Fogerty)
I left a good job in the city
Workin for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin
Worryin bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin .
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river.
I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Chopped a lotta cane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheels keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river.

Now if you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don t have to worry and if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big Wheels keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river.
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river...
I left a good job in the city
Workin for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin
Worryin bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin .
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river.
I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Chopped a lotta cane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheels keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river
Rollin , rollin , rollin on the river.
