Looking for a job in the city
Working for a man every night and day
And i never lost a minute of sleeping
Worrying about the way the things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Ain't a lot of plates in memphis
And pumped a lot of pain down in new orleans
But i never saw the good side of a city
Did i hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
