Proud Mary (feat. Elton John and Cher)

You know, every now and then

I think you might like to hear something from us

Nice and easy

But there's just one thing

You see we never ever do nothing

Nice, easy

We always do it nice and rough

So we're gonna take the beginning of this song

And do it easy

But then we're gonna do the finish rough

This is the way we do "Proud Mary"And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

Listen to the storyI left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleeping

I was worrying 'bout the way the things might've beenYou know that big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, rolling, rolling yeah

Rolling on the river (the river)Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city

Until I hitched a ride on a riverboat queenYou know that big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, rolling, rolling yeah (rolling)

Rolling on the riverSay we're rolling (rolling) rolling yeah

Rolling on the riverThe riverOh I left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleeping

Worrying about the way the things might've beenBig wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the riverSay we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the riverOh I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

And I pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city

Until I hitched a ride on a riverboat queenBig wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, tell you rolling, we're rolling on the river

I tell you we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the riverIf you come down to the river

I bet you gonna find some people who live

And you don't have to worry if you got no money

People on the river are happy to giveBig wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

And we're rolling, tell you rolling, we're rolling on the river

Tell you we have no time (rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)

(Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)

Tell you we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

I tell you we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)
