Ike singing

B

Together

B(And we) Rolling, rolling, rolling on a river - Listen to the story now

BLeft a good job (down) in the city,

Workin' for the man every night and day

And I never lost one minute of sleepin'

I was worryin' 'bout the way that things might have been

F# G#m EBig wheel a-keep on turnin', ooh the Proud Mary keep on burnin'

BAnd we're rollin' (rolling), rollin' (rolling), rollin' on the river (rolling on the river)

BCleaned 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

(Un)til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen

F# G#m E(You know that) Big wheels keep on turnin', ooh the Proud Mary keep on burnin'

BAnd we're rollin' (rollin'), rollin' yeah (rollin'), rollin' on the river (rolling on the river)

Slow down

B E BSaid we're rollin' (rollin'), rollin' (rollin'), rollin' on the river (rolling on the river)

(faster until the end of the song)
