Lyrics of Proud Mary by Ike Turner,Tina Turner
verse
Y' know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy
But there's just one thing
You see we never ever do nothing
Nice and easy
verse
We always do it nice and rough
So we're gonna take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
Then we're gonna do the finish rough
This is the way we do "Proud Mary"
verse
And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Listen to the story
verse
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
chorus
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
The river
verse
Cleaned a lot of plates in memphis
Pumped a lot of tane down in new orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
chorus
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
The river, say we rolling
Rolling, yeah, rolling on the river
The river
pre-chorus
I 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
chorus
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud mary keep on burning (burning)
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Say we rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
verse
Alright!
verse
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
And pumped a lot of tane down in new orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
chorus
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud mary keep on burning (burning)
And we rolling, say we rolling
We Rolling on the river
I tell you, we rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river

Alright, yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah!
verse
If you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give

Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud mary keep on burning (burning)
And we rolling, and we rolling
And we rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river

Yeah, alright!
