Proud Mary - Creedence (1969) (with lyrics)

1969



live 1970

(Lyrics)

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.

(Instrumental)

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

(Instrumental)

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.

Big wheel keep on turning,
Proud Mary keep on burning,
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

Who'll stop the rain? Creedence (1970) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Long as I remember
The rain been comin' down
Clouds of mystery pourin'
Confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages,
Tryin' to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain?

I went down Virginia,
Seekin' shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable,
I watched the tower grow
Five years plans and new deals,
Wrapped in golden chains
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain?

Heard the singers playin',
How we cheered for more
The crowd had rushed together,
Tryin' to keep warm
Still the rain kept pourin',
Fallin' on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain?

Have you ever seen the rain? - Creedence (1970) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm
I know, it's been comin' for some time

When it's over, so they say
It will rain a sunny day
I know, shinin' down like water

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down a sunny day

Yesterday, and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hot
I know, been that way for all my time

And forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow
I know, it can't stop, I wonder

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down a sunny day

Yeaaaaah!

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down a sunny day

1965





(Lyrics)

The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me
I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go
So won't you please

Be my, be my baby, be my little baby
My one and only baby
Say you'll be my darling

Be my, be my baby,
Be my baby now
My one and only baby

I'll make you happy, baby
Just wait and see
For every kiss you give me
I'll give you three
Oh, since the day I saw you
I have been waiting for you
You know I will adore you till eternally

So won't you please

Be my, be my baby, be my little baby
My one and only baby
Say you'll be my darling

Be my, be my baby,
Be my baby now
My one and only baby

Be my, be my baby, be my little baby

My one and only baby
Say you'll be my darling

Be my, be my baby,
Be my baby now
My one and only baby

Be my, be my baby, be my little baby

My one and only baby
Say you'll be my darling

Be my, be my baby,
Be my baby now
My one and only baby

Oooooo...

Byt the time I get to Phoenix - Glen Campbell (1967 live) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

By the time I get to Phoenix 
She'll be rising

She'll find the note 

I left hangin' on her door
And she'll laugh when she reads the part 

That says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before

By the time I make Albuquerque 

She'll be working
She'll prob'ly stop at lunch 

And give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone 

Keep on ringin' off the wall 

That's all

By the time I make Oklahoma 

She'll be sleepin'
She'll turn softly 

Call my name out loud
And she'll cry 

Just to think I'd really leave her
Tho' time and time 

I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know 

I would really go.

She didn't know 
 I would really go
