Tracy Chapman - House Of The Rising Sun Lyrics

Font:

Align:

There is a house in new orleans

They call the rising sun

And its been the ruin of many a poor boy

And God I know Im one

My mother was a tailor

She sewed my new bluejeans

My father was a gamblin man

Down in new orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and trunk

And the only time hes satisfied

Is when hes 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 got one foot on the platform

The other foot on the train

Im 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 its been the ruin of many a poor boy

And God I know Im one
