House Of the Rising Sun

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 am one
Oh 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 a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's all ah drunk
Well I got one foot on the platform
And the other foot on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Ball and chain
Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Don't spend your life in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
