House Of The Rising Lyrics

song lyrics House Of The Rising Sun lyrics Oh there is a house in New Orleans. They call the Rising Sun. It s been the ruin of many young poor girls And God I know I m one. My mother, she was a tailor, yeah yeah She sewed my new blue jeans My father, he was a gamblin man Down in New Orleans. I got one foot on the platform, yeah The other foot on the train I m going back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain Oh mother please tell your children, oh yeah Not to do what I have done Go and spend their lives in sin and misery In the house of the Rising Sun. Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time he will be satisfied Is when he s all drunk. Oh there is a house in New Orleans. They call the Rising Sun. It s been the ruin of many young poor girls And God I know I m one. song lyrics
