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
Til I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
Big wheels keep on turnin', Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin, rollin', rollin' 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 got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheels keep on turnin', Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin, rollin', rollin' on the river

Rollin, rollin', rollin' on the river [Rpt to end]
