Black Lace Proud Mary song lyrics
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keeps on Turin'
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rollin', rolling, rolling on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of tain 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 keeps on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rollin', rolling, rolling 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 keeps on Turin'
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rollin', rolling, rolling on the river
Rollin', rolling, rolling on the river

Y' know, every now and then I think
you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy
But there's just one thing
You see we never ever do nothing
Nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're gonna take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
Then we're gonna do the finish rough
This is the way we do "Proud Mary"
And we're rolling, rolling,
rolling on the river Listen to the story I left a good
job in the city Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning Proud mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling 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 if you got no
money People on the river are happy to give
