ANTHONY ARMSTRONG JONES - PROUD MARY lyrics

rate me

I left a good job in the city a working for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleep

And worryin' bout the way things might have been

Big wheels keep on turning Proud Mary keeps on burning

Rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river

I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis I copped a lot of 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 turning Proud Mary keeps on burning

Rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river

[ guitar - steel ]

If you come down to the river I bet you gonna find the people who live

You don't have to worry if you have no money people on the river are happy to give

Big wheels keep on turning Proud Mary keeps on burning

Rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river

Rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river
