"Proud Mary" is a Creedence Clearwater Revival song that reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Tina Turner released a cover of the song that won her a Grammy Award in 1971.

Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem covered the song in the 1984 live show The Muppet Show On Tour. The show's program booklet reads:

Lace up your boogie shoes 'cause this outta sight band is about to hit you with a few riffs. Wow, what a sound! Like total energy! The good Doctor, that gravel-voiced keyboardist with the 22-karat smile, leads his super groovacious group in a rousing rendition of "Proud Mary" that really rolls. Animal, the frenzied drummer; Floyd, the laid-back bassist; super-cool sax player Zoot; and Janice, the outstanding southpaw guitar strummer help the Doctor detail the band's fantastic flashbacks medley. Long live rock and roll. Fer sure!
