Left a good job in the city (c'mon y'all)
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleep
And I was worried about the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
And we're rolling, rolling yeah
Rolling on a river
Well I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis, yeah
Pumped a lot of tanks in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on the river boat Queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling, yeah
Rolling on a river (c'mon y'all)
Rolling, yeah, rolling, yeah
Rolling on a river
River doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo
