My mother was a tailor
|
|
She sewed my new bluejeans
|
|
My father was a gamblin' 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
|
|
Spend your lives 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 goin' back to New Orleans
|
|
To wear that ball and chain
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, 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
|
