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
