Karaoké The House of the Rising Sun The Animals

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 gamblin' man down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs is a suitcase and a 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've 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
