CCR Medley 2 Songtext
von Die Campbells

Left a good job in the city,
Workin′ for the man ev'ry night and day,
And I never lost one minute of sleepin′,
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.

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 riverboat queen.

Big wheel keep on turnin',
Proud Mary keep on burnin′.
Rollin', rollin', rollin′ on the river.


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

Hey, tonight,
Gonna be tonight,
Don′t you know I′m flyin'
Tonight, tonight.

Hey, c′mon,
Gonna chase tomorrow
Tonight, tonight.

Gonna get it to the rafters,
Watch me now.
Jody's gonna get religion
All night long.

Hey, c′mon,
Gonna hear the sun
Tonight, tonight.
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
