Proud Mary (Acapella) [2023 Remaster]

[Intro: Tina Turner]
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 going to 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

[Verse 1: Ike Turner & Tina Turner]
Left a good job down in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
And I was worrying 'bout the way that things might have been

[Chorus: Tina Turner, Ike Turner, Both]
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling (rolling)
Rolling, yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)

[Verse 2: Tina Turner, Ike Turner, Both]
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

[Chorus: Ike Turner, Tina Turner, Both]
Ya know the big wheel keep on turning
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, yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (rolling on the river)

[Verse 3: Tina Turner]
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

[Chorus: Tina Turner, The Ikettes, Both]
Big wheel keep on turning (turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (burning)
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Rolling, say we rolling
Rolling on the river

[Post-Chorus: Tina Turner, Tina Turner & The Ikettes]
We're up, do do do do do do do do do do
Alright!

[Verse 4: Tina Turner]
Oh, I 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

[Chorus: Tina Turner, The Ikettes, Both]
Big wheel keep on turning (Turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning)
Rolling, said we're rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river
I tell ya we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river

[Post-Chorus: Tina Turner, Tina Turner & The Ikettes]
We're up, do do do do do do do do do do
Alright!
Yeah
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah

[Verse 5: Tina Turner]
If you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
And you don't have to worry if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give

[Chorus: Tina Turner, The Ikettes, Both]
Big wheel keep on turning (Turning)
Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning)
Rolling, say we rolling, yeah
And we're rolling on the river
Tell me one more time, rolling, yeah, rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river, ooh yeah

[Post-Chorus: Tina Turner, Tina Turner & The Ikettes]
We're up, do do do do do do do do do do
Yeah, alright!
Alright
Uh-huh
Wooo
Ohh

[Outro: Tina Turner & The Ikettes]
Rolling, rolling, yeah
Rolling on the river (Alright now)
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Said we're rolling, rolling, yeah (Ooh, yeah)
Rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling
Said we're rolling on the river
