Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been
[Chorus]
Big wheel, keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
[Verse 2]
Cleaned a lotta plates in Memphis
Pumped a lotta 'pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of a city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
[Chorus]
Big wheel, keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin' (Rollin' on)
Rollin' on a river
[Chorus]
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
[Verse 3]
If you come down to the river
Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
[Chorus]
Big wheel, keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
[Outro]
Rollin', rollin' (Rollin' on)
Rollin' on a river (Yeah)
Rollin', rollin' (Mmm, mmm)
Rollin' on a river (Yeah)
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river (Yeah)
