Proud Mary (2023 Remaster)

[Intro]

You know, every now and then

I think you might like to hear something from us

Nice and easy

There's just one thing

See, we never-ever do nothing nice and easy

We always do it nice and rough

I'm gonna take the beginning of the song

And do it easy

But then we're gonna do the finish rough

It's the way we do, "Proud Mary"

And we rollin' (Ooh)

Rollin' (Ooh)

Rollin' on the river

Listen to the story

[Verse 1]

Left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

Then I never lost one minute of sleep

And I was worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

[Chorus]

Big wheels keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we rolling (Rolling)

Rolling, yeah (Rolling)

Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)

[Verse 2]

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

You know 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]

Big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we rolling (Rolling)

Rolling, yeah (Rolling)

Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)

Said, we rolling (Rolling)

Rolling, yeah (Rolling)

Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)

[Verse 3]

Oh, I left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

Then I never lost a minute of sleep

When worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

[Chorus]

Big wheels keep on turning (Turning)

Proud Mary keeps on burning (Burning)

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Said, we rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Then move up, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Alright

[Verse 4]

Oh, I 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

'Til I hitched a ride on the river boat queen

[Chorus]

Big wheels keep on turning (Turning)

Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning)

Rolling, said we rolling, we rolling on the river

Tell you we rolling, rolling, we rolling on the river

Move up, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Alright

Yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ooh

[Verse 5]

If you come down to the river

I betcha gonna find the people who live

And you don't have to worry if you got no money

People on the river are happy to give

[Chorus]

Big wheels keep on turning (Turning)

Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning)

And we rolling, said we rolling, yeah, we rolling on the river

Tell me one more time

Rolling (Yeah), rolling (Alright), we rolling on the river (Woo, yeah)

Move up, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Doot-doot, doot-doot

Yeah, alright, uh-huh

Woo-hoo

Rolling, rolling (Yeah), rolling on the river (Yeah, right now)

We rolling (Yeah), rolling, we rolling on the river

Said, we rolling (Uh), rolling (Yeah), rolling on the river

I tell ya, we rolling, we rolling, we're rolling on the river

Yeah, alright

Uh, huh
