Proud Mary |
| Y' know, every now and then |
| I think you might like to hear something from us Nice and easy |
| But there’s just one thing |
| You see we never ever do nothing |
| Nice and easy |
| We always do it nice and rough |
| So we’re gonna take the beginning of this song |
| And do it easy |
| Then we’re gonna do the finish rough |
| This is the way we do «Proud Mary» |
| And we’re rolling, rolling, rolling on the river |
| Listen to the story |
| I 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 keep on turning |
| Proud Mary keep on burning |
| And we’re rolling, rolling |
| Rolling on the river |
| Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis |
| 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 a riverboat queen |
| Big wheel keep on turning |
| Proud Mary keep on burning |
| And we’re rolling, rolling |
| Rolling on the river |
| If you come down to the river |
| I bet you gonna find some people who live |
| You don’t have to worry if you got no money |
| People on the river are happy to give |
