Proud Mary

(John C. Fogerty)

George Jones & Johnny Paycheck

Well, I left a good job in the city

A workin' for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleep

While worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.

Big wheels keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

I said rollin'

Rollin', rollin' on the river.

I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

Cropped a lot of cane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city

Till I hitched a ride on this river boat queen.

Big wheels keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

I said rollin'

Rollin', rollin' on the river.

Well, if you come down to the river

Well, I bet you gonna find some 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 turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin'

I said rollin'

Rollin', rollin' on the river.

--- Instrumental ---

I said rollin',

Rollin', rollin' on the river.

Rollin', rollin' on the river...
