Proud Mary Songtext
von Elvis Presley

Left a good job in the city
Workin′ for the man every 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

I cleaned a lot of plates down in Memphis
I 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

If you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don′t have to worry ′cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give, I said

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

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