lyrics

PART 1: SUNRISE

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 knows that 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 trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's all a-drunk

PART 2: NOON

(Instrumental)

PART 3: SUNSET

I got one foot on the station
Got one foot on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

So mothers tell your children
Don't do what I have done
Don't spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
