Proud Mary

by Heroes del Silencio

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.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Dejó un buen trabajo en la ciudad,
trabajando para el hombre cada noche y día,
Y nunca he perdido un minuto de sueño,
Preocupante 'combate las cosas podrían haber sido.
Big rueda seguirá girando,
el orgullo de Mary seguira ardiendo,
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río.
Limpiado un montón de platos en Memphis,
Bombeado mucho dolor en Nueva Orleáns,
Pero nunca vi el lado bueno de la ciudad,
Hasta que me enganchó un paseo en barco por el río a una reina.
la gran rueda seguirá girando,
el orgullo de Mary seguira ardiendo,
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río.
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río.
Si llega hasta el río,
Apuesto a que vas a encontrar algunas personas que viven.
Usted no tiene que preocuparse porque no tiene dinero,
La gente en el río está feliz de dar.
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río.
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río.
Rodando, rodando, rodando en el río

Proud Mary

by They Might Be Giants

(John Fogerty)
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
Haven't ever lost one minute of sleeping
Worried about the way things might have been
Been a lot of places down in Memphis
I umped a lot of babes down in New Orleans
Had a lot of shots at good times in the city
Till I hitched a ride on a river bout queen
A big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
Rollin, rollin, rollin on a river
If you come down to the river
I betcha you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry
'Cause you have no money
People along the river are happy to give
I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river

Proud Mary

by The Kinks

Looking for a job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
Then I never lost a minute of speed
When worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Seen a lot of places 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 keeps on burning
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on the river.
If you come down to the river
Betcha gonna find the people who live
You don't have to worry though you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheels keep on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning.

by Coldplay

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 now
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
Oh the proud mary keep on burning
And we’re rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Oh the proud mary keep on burning
And we’re rolling, rolling yeah
Rolling on 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
Proud mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river.
