The Checkmates, Ltd. - Proud Mary lyrics

rate me

Featuring Sonny Charles

All right, everybody

Let's get on board

Gonna take a little trip

Down the river, river, yeah

Left a good job in the city

Working for the man

Every night and day

And I never lost

One minute of sleeping

Worrying bout the way

Things might have been

Big wheel keeps on turning

(Turning, turning)

Proud Mary keeps on burning

(Burning, burning)

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

Rolling (yeah, yeah) rolling

Rolling on the river

Hey, yeah, yeah...

Cleaned a lot of

Plates in Memphis, y'all

Pumped a lot of pain

In New Orleans

But I never saw

The good side of the city

Til I hitched a ride

On a river boat queen

Big wheel keeps on turning

(Keeps on turning)

Proud Mary keeps on burning

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

Ooh wee, it's all right

If you come down to the river

Bet you gonna find

Some people who live

You don't have to worry

If you don't have no money

People on the river

Are happy to give

I tell you

Big wheel keeps on turning

Proud Mary keeps on burning

Rolling (yeah, yeah) rolling

Rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

Yeah, yeah, hey...

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river

Rolling, rolling

Rolling on the river...<br />
