(Tina Speaks)
You know, every now and then I think you might like to hear
something from us, nice, easy
There's just one thing
You see we never, ever do nothing nice, easy
We always do it nice and rough
But we're gonna take the beginning of this song, and do it easy
But then we're gonna do the finish, rough
It's the way we do Proud Mary
Listen to the story

Verse 1
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

Chorus
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

Chorus

Repeat verse 1 and 2 faster and add verse 3

Verse 3
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
