Left a job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleep
And I was worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning
And we're rolling
Rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
(Rolling on the river)
Said we're rolling
Rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
(The river, the river, the river)
Left a job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleep
And I was worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Said we're rolling
Rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
Oh right
Oh right
Oh yeah, yeah
Clean a lot of plates in Memphis
Hogged a lot of playing down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Said we're rolling
Rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
If you come down to the river
Betcha gonna find the people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause you ain't got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Said we're rolling, yeah
Rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
Oh right
Yeah
Oh right
Yeah...
Deixei um bom emprego na cidade.
Trabalhando para O Homem noite e dia.
E eu nunca perdi um minuto de sono.
Preocupando-se com o caminho que as coisas tomaram.
Grande roda mantenha-se girando.
Orgulhosa Maria mantenha-se viva.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Limpando muitos pratos em Memphis,
Sondando muita dor em New Orleans,
Mas eu nunca vi o lado bom da cidade,
Até eu descer o rio de barco.
Grande roda mantenha-se girando.
Orgulhosa Maria mantenha-se viva.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Se você vier rio abaixo,
Aposto que você vai achar gente viva.
Não se preocupe se você não tem dinheiro,
Pessoas do rio têm alegria pra dar.
Grande roda mantenha-se girando.
Orgulhosa Maria mantenha-se viva.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
Rolando, rolando, rolando no rio.
