(words and music by John C. Fogerty) Left a good job in the city workin' for The Man every night and day And I never lost one minute of sleepin Worryin' bout the way things might have been 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 Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen Big wheel keep on turnin'... Rollin',….. [ guitar ] 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 Big wheel keep on turnin'... Rollin' rollin' rollin' on the river
