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
