Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
I never lost one minute of sleep
Worryin' about the way things might have been

Big wheels Keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
And we're rollin'
Rollin, rollin on the river

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 until I hitched
a ride on the river boat Queen

Big wheels Keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
And we're rollin'
Rollin, rollin on the river

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
I never lost one minute of sleep
Worryin' about the way things might have been

Big wheels Keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
And we're rollin'
Rollin, rollin on the river

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 until I hitched
a ride on the river boat Queen

Big wheels Keep on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
And we're rollin'
Rollin, rollin on the river

If [bad word] down to the river
I betcha you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry
If you got no money
The people on the river are happy to give

I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin' on a river

Rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin' on a river...
