Proud Mary (encore) Songtext
You know,
Every now and then I think you might like to hear something from us,
Nice and easy There′s just one thing
You see we never, ever do nothing nice,
Easy We always do it nice and rough But
We're gonna take the beginning of this song,
And do it easy But then we′re gonna do the finish,
Rough It's the way we do Proud Mary
Listen to the story Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute
Of sleep Worryin′ about the way things might have been Big wheel
Keep on turnin′ Proud Mary keep on burnin' And we′re rollin' Rollin′,
Rollin' on the river Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis 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 Big wheel keep on turnin′
Proud Mary keep on burnin' And we're rollin′ Rollin′,
Rollin' on the river Said we′re rollin' Rollin′,
Yeah Rollin' on the river Left a good job in the city Workin′ for the
Man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleep Worryin'
About the way things might have been Big wheel keep on
Turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin′ And we′re rollin' Rollin′,
Rollin' on the river Said we′re rollin' We′re rollin',
Rollin' on the river The river,
Du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du 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 Big wheel
Keep on turnin′ Proud Mary keep on burnin' And we′re rollin',
Said we′re rollin' We′re rollin' on the river I tell ya we're rollin′,
Rollin′ We're rollin′ on the river River,
Du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du, du-du All right!
Yeah!
If you come down to the river I betcha you're gonna find some people
Who live And you don′t have to worry If you got no money The people
On the river are happy to give Big wheel keep on
Turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin′ And we're rollin',
Said we′re rollin′ Now we're rollin′ on the river Rollin',
Rollin′ Rollin' on the river Rollin′,
Rollin' Rollin' on the river Rollin′,
Rollin′ Rollin' on the river Rollin′, rollin' Rollin′ on the river
Every now and then I think you might like to hear something from us,
Nice and easy There′s just one thing
You see we never, ever do nothing nice,
Easy We always do it nice and rough But
We're gonna take the beginning of this song,
And do it easy But then we′re gonna do the finish,
Rough It's the way we do Proud Mary
Listen to the story Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute
Of sleep Worryin′ about the way things might have been Big wheel
Keep on turnin′ Proud Mary keep on burnin' And we′re rollin' Rollin′,
Rollin' on the river Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis I pumped a

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