Rick Hamlin Sings ‘Proud Mary’

In the February-March 2016 issue of Mysterious Ways, Adam Hunter shares the unlikely origin story of John Fogerty’s Proud Mary. Enjoy Rick Hamlin’s rendition of this classic song.

 

Left a good job in the city
Workin’ for the man every night and day
And I never lost a minute of sleepin’
Worryin’ ’bout the way things might have been

Big wheels keep on turnin’
Proud Mary keep on burnin’
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on a river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
‘Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen

Good wheels keep on turnin’
Proud Mary keep on burnin’
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on a river
