Le Pénitencier Songtext
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
Les portes du pénitencier
Bientôt vont se refermer
Et c′est là que je finirai ma vie
Comme d'autres gars l'ont finie
My mother was a tailor
Yes, she was
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father, he was a gamblin′ man
Down in New Orleans
Oh, le soleil n′est pas fait, pas fait pour nous
C'est la nuit qu′on peut tricher
Toi qui ce soir as tout perdu
Demain, tu peux gagner
Oh, mothers, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Ho, les portes (there is) du (a house) pénitencier (in New Orleans)
Bientôt (they call) vont se refermer (the Rising Sun)
Et c'est là (and it′s been) que je (the ruin) finirai ma vie (of many a poor boy)
Comme d'autres gars (and God) l′ont (I know) finie (I'm one)
