Proud Mary Lyrics

Proud Mary lyrics

(talking part)

You know, every now and then I think you wanna hear

somethin from us, nice and easy

Its just one thing you see,

We never, ever do nothin nice and easy

We always do it nice and rough

But we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy

And then we're gonna do the finish rough

The way we do Proud Mary

Listen to the story now



Verse 1

Left a good job in the city

Workin' for the man every night and day

I never lost one minute of sleeping

And I was worried about the way things might have been



Chorous

Big wheels Keep on turnin

Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

And we're rollin'

Rollin, rollin, rollin on the river



Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,

and I pumped a lot of tanks down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city until I hitched

a ride on the river boat Queen



Chorus



do verse 1 and two faster and add verse 3



Verse 3

If you come down to the river

I betcha you're gonna find some people who live

You don't have to worry

If you got no money

The people on the river are happy to give



I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'

Rollin' on a river

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
