House Of The Rising Sun Lyrics - Artist : Walls Of Jericho
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 blue jeans
My father was a gambling man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and gun
Now the only time that he is satisfied
Is when he's on the run

Oh mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
To spend your life 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 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
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
