'Proud Mary' is one of my proudest creations. I still remember the moment when the song came to me. Proud Mary was recorded in 1968 and was written two days after I was discharged from the National Guard, hence the line, “Left a good job in the city.” The line “Rollin’ on the river” was inspired by Will Rodgers’ 1935 film, “Steamboat Round The Bend.”The song peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March of 1969 and was the first of five singles to peak at No. 2! | John Fogerty
