House Of The Rising Sun |
There is a house in New Orleans |
They call the Rising Sun |
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy |
And God I know I’m one |
My mother was a tailor |
She sewed my new bluejeans |
My father was a gamblin' man |
Down in New Orleans |
Now the only thing a gambler needs |
Is a suitcase and trunk |
And the only time he’s satisfied |
Is when he’s on a drunk |
------ organ solo ------ |
Oh mother tell your children |
Not to do what I have done |
Spend your lives in sin and misery |
In the House of the Rising Sun |
Well, I got one foot on the platform |
The other foot on the train |
I’m goin' back to New Orleans |
To wear that ball and chain |
Well, there is a house in New Orleans |
They call the Rising Sun |
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy |
And God I know I’m one… |
