0:12There is a house in new Orleans
0:18They call the rising sun
0:24And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
0:30And god I know I'm one
0:45My mother was a tailor
0:51Sewed my new blue jeans
0:57My father was a gambling man
1:03Down in new Orleans
1:18Now the only thing a gambler needs
1:25Is a suitcase and trunk
1:31And the only time he's satisfied
1:37Is when he's on a drunk
2:26Oh mother tell your children
2:31Not to do what I have done
2:37Don't spend your lives in sin and misery
2:44In the house of the rising sun
2:59I got one foot on the platform
3:05The other foot on the train
3:11I'm going back to new Orleans
3:17To wear that ball and chain
3:33There is a house in new Orleans
3:39They call the rising sun
3:45And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
3:51And god I know I'm one
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 Sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gambling 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 Don't spend your lives in sin and misery In the house of the rising sun I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I'm going back to new Orleans To wear that ball and chain 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
