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.
|
CHORUS:
|
|
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.
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Rolling, 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 no money,
|
People on the river are happy to give.
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
|
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
|
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
|
