House of the Rising Sun Songtext
von Laid Back

There is a house in New Orleans
They call, the Rising Sun
It′s been the ruin of many a poor boy
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

Down in New Orleans


The only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
The only time he's satisfied
Is when he's drunk

Is when he′s drunk

Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your life un sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
In the House of the Rising Sun
