(words & music by John Fogerty)
Left a good job in the city
Workin for the man every night and day
Haven t ever lost one minute of sleeping
Worried about the way things might have been

Been a lot of places down in Memphis
I umped a lot of babes down in New Orleans
Had a lot of shots at good times in the city
Till I hitched a ride on a river bout queen

A big wheel keeps on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin rollin rollin
Rollin on a river
Rollinrollinrollin on a river

If you come down to the river
I betcha you re gonna find some people who live
You don t have to worry
Cause you have no money
People along the river are happy to give

I said a big wheel keeps on turnin
Proud Mary keeps on burnin rollin rollin
Rollin on a river
Rollin rollin rollin on a river
