Hey, tonight Gonna be tonight Don't you know I'm flyin' Tonight Tonight Left a good job in the city Workin' for the man ev'ry night and day And I never lost one minute of sleepin' Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been Big wheel, keep on turnin' Proud Mary, keep on burnin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river An' I can remember the fourth o' July Runnin' through the backwood bare An' I can still hear my ol' hound dog barkin' Chasin' down a hoodoo there Chasin' down a hoodoo there Born on the Bayou Born on the Bayou Born on the Bayou 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'll 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 on a sunny day? Down on the corner, out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet Down on the corner, out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet 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? There's a place up ahead and I'm goin' Just as fast as my feet can fly Come away, come away if you're goin' Leave the sinkin' ship behind Come on the risin' wind We're goin' up around the bend Hey, tonight Gonna be tonight Don't you know I'm flyin' Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight
