Proud mary

Looking for a job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
Then i never lost a minute of speed
When worrying 'bout the way things might have been

Big wheels keep on turning
Proud mary keeps on burning
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river

Seen a lot of places in memphis
Hogged a lot of playing down in new orleans
But i never saw the good side of the city

'til i hitched a ride on a river boat queen

Big wheels keep on turning
Proud mary keeps on burning
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river.

If you come down to the river

Betcha gonna find the people who live

You don't have to worry though you have no money
People on the river are happy to give

Big wheels keep on turning
Proud mary keeps on burning.
