Proud Mary — текст песни (Lynn Anderson)

(John C. Fogerty)

I left a good job in the city
Workin` for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin`
Worryin` bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turnin`
Proud Mary keeps on burnin`.
Rollin`, rollin`, rollin` on the river
Rollin`, rollin`, rollin` on the river.

I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Chopped a lotta cane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheels keep on turnin`
Proud Mary keeps on burnin`
Rollin`, rollin`, rollin` on the river
Rollin`, rollin`, rollin` on the river.

--- Instrumentak ---

Now if you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don`t have to worry and if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big Wheels keep on turnin`
Proud Mary keeps 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...
