씨씨알
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
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
Cleaned a lot of
plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of
pain down
in New Orleans
But I never saw the
good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride
on a river boat queen
Big wheel
keep on turning
Proud Mary
keep on burning
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
If you come down
to the river
Bet you 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 turning
Proud Mary
keep on burning
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
Rolling rolling
rolling on the river
