(J. Fogerty)
|
Left a good job in the city,
|
Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day,
|
And I never lost one minute of sleepin',
|
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.
|
Chorus:
|
Big wheel keep on turnin',
|
Proud Mary keep on burnin',
|
Rollin', rollin', rollin' 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,
|
'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Rollin', rollin', rollin' 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
|
|
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
|
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
|
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
