|
You know, every now and then I think you wanna hear |
|
somethin from us, nice and easy |
|
Its just one thing you see, |
|
We never, ever do nothin nice and easy |
|
We always do it nice and rough |
|
But we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy |
|
And then we're gonna do the finish rough |
|
The way we do Proud Mary |
|
Listen to the story now |
|
And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river |
|
listen to the story |
|
Left a good job in the city |
|
Workin' for the man every night and day |
|
I never lost one minute of sleep |
|
Worryin' about the way things might have been |
|
Big wheels Keep on turnin |
|
Proud Mary keeps on burnin' |
|
And we're rollin' |
|
Rollin, rollin on the river |
|
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 until I hitched |
|
a ride on the river boat Queen |
|
Big wheels Keep on turnin |
|
Proud Mary keeps on burnin' |
|
And we're rollin' |
|
Rollin, rollin on the river |
|
Left a good job in the city |
|
Workin' for the man every night and day |
|
I never lost one minute of sleep |
|
Worryin' about the way things might have been |
|
Big wheels Keep on turnin |
|
Proud Mary keeps on burnin' |
|
And we're rollin' |
|
Rollin, rollin on the river |
|
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 until I hitched |
|
a ride on the river boat Queen |
|
Big wheels Keep on turnin |
|
Proud Mary keeps on burnin' |
|
And we're rollin' |
|
Rollin, rollin on the river |
|
If you come down to the river |
|
I betcha you're gonna find some people who live |
|
You don't have to worry |
|
If you got no money |
|
The people on the river are happy to give |
|
I said a big wheel keeps on turnin' |
|
Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin' |
|
Rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river |
|
Rollin', rollin' on a river... |
