Rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin'
Worryin' about the way things might have been
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on the river
Rollin' on the river
Rollin' on the river
Workin' my man every night and day
Rollin' on the river
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Rollin', rollin'
Until I hitched a ride on the river boat Queen
And I never lost one minute of sleep
Worryin' about the way things might have been
Workin' my man every night and day
Rollin' on the river
Just one thing
Left a good job in the city
And pumped a lot of tanks down in New Orleans
The river, say it one more time
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on the river
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on the river
And we're rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin'
I said rollin', rollin'
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Well I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Rollin', rollin'
I like to do it nice and rough
Rollin' on the river
Left a good job in the city
Somehow I never ever sing to do
Rollin', rollin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin' on the river
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin' on the river, rollin'
The river
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
That is just so because I
And I never lost one minute of sleep
Rollin' on the river
But I never saw the good side of the city
The river, oh what you say?
