Testo Proud Mary - Ike & Tina Turner
Testo della canzone Proud Mary (Ike & Tina Turner), tratta dall'album Proud Mary: The Best of Ike and Tina Turner
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us (left a good job down in the city)
Nice and easy, but there's just one thing (working for the man every night and day)
You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy (but I never lost one minute of sleeping)
We always do it nice and rough (worrying 'bout the way that things might have been)
So we're gonna take the beginning of the song and do it easy (big wheel keep on turning)
But then we're gonna do the finish rough (Proud Mary keep on burning)
This is the way we do "Proud Mary"
(And we're) rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Listen to the story now
Left a good job in the city (down in the city)
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
I was worrying 'bout the way that things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Ooh, the Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling (rolling)
Rolling, yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Cleaned 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
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
(You know that) big wheel keep on turning
Ooh, the Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling (rolling)
Rolling, yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Said we're rolling (rolling)
Rolling (rolling)
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)
Oh, 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 that things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (burning)
Rolling (yeah), rolling (all right)
Rolling on the river (rolling now)
Rolling (all right), say we rolling (yeah)
Rolling on the river
We're up, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(Whoo!)
Alright!
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis, y'all
Pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
'Til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (burning)
Rolling (all right), rolling (yeah)
Rolling on the river
Say we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
We're up, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Alright!
Yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
All right, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah
If you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry if you got no money
The people on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (burning)
Rolling (oh, oh), say we rolling (yeah)
Rolling on the river (all right now)
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
We're up, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(Whoo!) yeah, ooh
(They warn me, they warn me like that)
Rolling, yeah (rolling), alright, alright
(Rolling) yeah, (rolling) uh-huh
(Rolling on the river) give me one more time
(Rolling) yeah, (rolling), ooh
(We rolling on the river)
(Rolling) ow, (rolling), yeah
(Rolling on the river) now, now, now, now
(Rolling) yeah, (rolling) ooh (rolling)
