Proud Mary

(Tina Speaks)

You know, every now and then I think you might like to hear

something from us, nice, 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



Verse 1

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



Chorus

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



Chorus



Repeat verse 1 and 2 faster and add verse 3



Verse 3

If you come 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
