Lyrics House of the Rising Sun - Josh White
There
is
a
house
in
New
Orleans
They
call
the
Rising
Sun
And
it's
been
the
ruin
of
many
a
poor
girl,
And
me,
oh
Lord
is
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
gambler
lead
me
astray
My
mother
is
a
tailor
She
sews
those
new
blue
jeans
My
sweetheart
is
a
drunkard,
Lord
Down
in
New
Orleans
The
only
thing
a
drunkard
needs
Is
a
suitcase
and
a
trunk
The
only
time
he's
satisfied
Is
when
he's
on
a
drunk
He'll
fill
his
glasses
to
the
brim
He
passes
them
around
And
the
only
pleasure
he
gets
out
of
life
Is
bumming
from
town
to
town
Go
tell
my
baby
sister,
Never
do
what
I
have
done
To
shun
that
house
in
New
Orleans
They
call
the
Rising
Sun
It's
one
foot
on
the
platform
And
the
other
one
on
the
train
I'm
going
back
to
New
Orleans
To
wear
that
ball
and
chain
I'm
goin'
back
to
New
Orleans
My
race
is
almost
run
I'm
goin'
back
to
spend
my
life
Beneath
that
Rising
Sun
