Proud Mary (1993 Version)

You know, every now and then

I think you might like to hear something from us

Nice and easy

Left a good job down in the city

There's just one thing

You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy

Workin' for the man every night and day

We always do it nice and rough

Why I never lost one minute of sleep and I won't worry 'bout the way that things might have been

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

Big wheel keep on turnin'

But then we're gonna do the finish rough

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

That's the way we do Proud Mary

And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Listen to the story

Left a good job in the city

Down in the city

Workin' for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleepin'

I was worryin' about the way that things might have been

You know that big wheel keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

And we're rollin', rollin', yeah, rollin' on the river

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

The river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

You know 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

You know the big wheel keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

And we're rollin', rollin', yeah

Rollin', rollin'

Rollin' on the river

Rollin' on the river

Said we're rollin', rollin', yeah, rollin' on the river

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the

The river

Oh, I 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

Big wheel keep on turnin'

Turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

Burnin'

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

Say we're rollin', we're rollin', rollin' on the river

The river, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Alright

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

Till I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

Big wheel keep on turnin'

Turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'

Burnin'

And we're rollin', said we rollin', we rollin' on the river

Alright, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, woo

I bet you're 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 turnin'
