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
