Lyrics Proud Mary - The Voice Performance - Mahalia Barnes

I left a good job down in the city'
Working for the man every night and day,
And I never lost one minute of sleeping,
And worrying 'bout the way things might have been.

Big wheel keep on turning,
And the Proud Mary keep on burning,
And were rolling, said rolling, we're rolling on the river.
I tell you we're rolling, rolling yeah
We're rolling on the river
On the river.

Well 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 'bout the way things might have been.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
And we're rolling, say we're rolling,
We're rolling on the river,
I tell you we're rolling,
Say we're rolling, rolling on the river.
Dodododdodododo

Well, well, well, well ah ha

Well I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,
And I 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 turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
And we're rolling, say we're rolling,
We're rolling on the river,
I tell you we're rolling, say we're rolling,
We're rolling on the river.
Dododododododo,
Ah ah well, well, well, well, wel, well

I said if you come down to the river,
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry if you got no money,
People on the river are happy to give.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Say the Proud Mary keep on burning,
Say we're rolling, rolling, we're rolling on the river.
I tell you we're rolling, say we're rolling on the river,
Say we're rolling, rolling on the river,
I tell you we're rolling, rolling,
Say we're rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Dodododododo
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
