Proud Mary



"This was the first song I ever learned..."

Prince



"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 pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen


Big wheel keep on turnin'

Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river


If you come down to the river

Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause you have [if you got] no money
People on the river are happy to give


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
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river"
