Lynn Anderson - Proud Mary lyrics

rate me

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

But I never lost a minute of sleepin'

Worryin' bout the way things might have been

Big wheels keep on turnin' Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

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

I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis chopped a lotta 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 turnin' Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

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

Now if you come down to the river I bet you gonna find some people who live

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

Big Wheels keep on turnin' Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

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

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