PROUD MARY

PROUD MARY
Words and music by John Fogerty

Left a good job in the
city,
Workin' for The Man ev'ry
night and day,
And I never lost one min-
ute of sleepin',
Worryin' 'bout the way things
might have been.

CHORUS:
Big wheel keep on turnin',
Proud Mary keep on burnin',
Rollin', rollin', rollin' 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,
'Til I hitched a ride on a
river boat queen.

CHORUS

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.

If you come down to the
river,
Bet you gonna find some peo-
ple who live.
You don't have to worry
'cause you have no money,
People on the river are
happy to give.

CHORUS

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
