House of the Rising Sun-The Animals

 

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

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
