0:17There is a house in New Orleans
0:26They call the rising sun
0:33And it's been the ruin for many a poor girl
0:46The one
0:55If I had listened to what my mother said
1:02I'd have been at home today
1:10But I was young and foolish oh god
1:19Let a rambler lead me astray
1:32Go tell my baby sister
1:40Don't do what I have done
1:48But shun that house in New Orleans
1:56They call the rising sun
2:09I'm going back to New Orleans
2:17My race is almost run
2:25I'm going back to spend my life
2:33Beneath that rising sun
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
And it's been the ruin for many a poor girl
The one
If I had listened to what my mother said
I'd have been at home today
But I was young and foolish oh god
Let a rambler lead me astray
Go tell my baby sister
Don't do what I have done
But shun that house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
I'm going back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
I'm going back to spend my life
Beneath that rising sun
