Proud Mary

Left a good job in the city Working for the man ev'ry night and day Then I never lost a minute of sleep When worrying 'bout the way that things might have been Big wheels keep on turning Proud Mary keeps on burning Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis 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 a river boat queen Big wheels keep on turning Proud Mary keeps on burning Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river If you come down to the river Betcha gonna find the people who live You don't have to worry though you have no money People on the river are happy to give Big wheels keep on turning Proud Mary keeps on burning Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
