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

Spend your lives in sin and misery
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
My mother was a tailor
They call the Rising Sun
There is a house in New Orleans
Down in New Orleans
My father was a gamblin' man
To wear that ball and chain
They call the Rising Sun
Now the only thing a gambler needs
In the house of the rising sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
Songwriter: Alan (Arr) Price
She sewed my new blue jeans
Oh, mother, tell your children
Is when he's on a drunk
Is a suitcase and trunk
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one
And God, I know I'm one
And the only time he's satisfied
Well, I got one foot on the platform
Not to do what I have done
The other foot on the train
