0:08There is a house in New Orleans
0:15They call the Rising Sun
0:22The downfall of so many young girls
0:29My sweetheart she was one
0:40Oh I was young and foolish
0:47At home I could not stay
0:54But my sweetheart left with a gamblin man
1:02Who led her heart astray
1:09When I was through with ramblin'
1:16Then home I quickly run
1:23Her mother cried you'll find my girl
1:30In the House of the Rising Sun
1:41And when I saw my sweetheart
1:49It gave my heart such pain such pain
1:56She said to me in misery
2:03I could never go home again
2:09Now go and tell my baby sister
2:17Not to do what I have done
2:24But spend your life
2:28As an honest man's wife
2:32Turn your back on the Rising Sun
2:39Turn your back on the Rising Sun
There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun The downfall of so many young girls My sweetheart she was one Oh I was young and foolish At home I could not stay But my sweetheart left with a gamblin man Who led her heart astray When I was through with ramblin' Then home I quickly run Her mother cried you'll find my girl In the House of the Rising Sun And when I saw my sweetheart It gave my heart such pain such pain She said to me in misery I could never go home again Now go and tell my baby sister Not to do what I have done But spend your life As an honest man's wife Turn your back on the Rising Sun Turn your back on the Rising Sun
