Yesterday I heard a street musician sang that song on Leicester Square and I fell in love with it!
Lyrics: Y' 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 and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're gonna take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
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 story
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 Rolling, rolling, rolling 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 turning Proud Mary, keep on burning Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river 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 turning Proud Mary, keep on burning Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
