Strophe)
Left a good job in the city, workin for the man every night and day
and I never lost one minute of sleepin worryin bout the way things might have been
Big wheel a keep on turnin Proud Mary keep on burnin
Roll in rollin rollin on the river
Strophe)
Cleande a lot of plates in Memphis pumped a lot of pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city, till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheel a keep on turnin, Proud Mary keep on burnin
Roll in rollin rollin on the river
Strophe)
If you come down to the river bet you´re gonna find some people who live
you don´t have to worry cause you have no money people on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turnin, Proud Mary keep on burnin
Roll in rollin rollin on the river
