(Alan Price)
There is a house down in New Orleans
Down in the Vieux Carr'e
A house they call the Rising Sun
Where love and money are made.
My father he was a gambler
Mother died when I was young
And I've worked since then to pleasure the men
At the house of the Rising Sun.
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a good girl
And oh God, you know I'm one.
So mothers you go tellin' all your daughters
Not to do what I have done
To live a life of sin, shame and strife
In the house of the Rising Sun.
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a good girl
And oh God, you know I'm one.
Oh God, you know I'm one...
