Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the men every night and day
And I never lost a minute of sleepin'
Worrin' 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
River
Been a lot of places in Mephis
Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans
But I never saw a good side of a city
Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
Said rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
River
If you come down to the river
Bet you're gonna find some people who live
But you don't have to worry if you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
I said rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
I said rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
I said rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
River, alright, yeah
