Lyrics
0:11Looking for a job in the city
0:14Working for the man every night and day
0:18And I never lost one minute of sleeping
0:21Worrying about the way things might have been
0:25Big wheel keep on turning
0:29Proud mary keep on burning
0:32Rolling rolling rolling on the river
0:39Cleaned a lot of plates in memphis
0:43Pumped a lot of pain down in new orleans
0:46But I never saw the good side of the city
0:50Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
0:54Big wheel keep on turning
0:57Proud mary keep on burning
1:01Rolling rolling rolling on the river
1:19Now If you come down to the river
1:22Bet you gonna find some people who live
1:26You don't have to worry cause you have no money
1:29People on the river are happy to give big wheel keep on turning
1:36Proud mary keep on burning
1:40Rolling rolling rolling on the river
1:54Looking for a job in the city
1:58Working for the man every night and day
2:02And I never lost one minute of sleeping
2:05Worrying about the way things might have been
2:09Big wheel keep on turning
2:12Proud mary keep on burning
2:16Rolling rolling rolling on the river
2:23Rolling rolling rolling on the river
2:30Rolling rolling rolling on the river
2:37Rolling rolling rolling on the river
Looking for a job in the city Working for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleeping Worrying about the way things might have been Big wheel keep on turning Proud mary keep on burning Rolling rolling rolling on the river Cleaned a lot of plates in memphis Pumped a lot of pain down in new orleans But I never saw the good side of the city Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen Big wheel keep on turning Proud mary keep on burning Rolling rolling rolling on the river Now If you come down to the river 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 big wheel keep on turning Proud mary keep on burning Rolling rolling rolling on the river Looking for a job in the city Working for the man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleeping Worrying about the way things might have been Big wheel keep on turning Proud mary keep on burning Rolling rolling rolling on the river Rolling rolling rolling on the river Rolling rolling rolling on the river Rolling rolling rolling on the river
