[00:00.99] There is a house in New Orleans,
[00:11.76] They call the rising sun.
[00:21.48] And it's been the ruin of many a poor Boy,
[00:31.77] And God I know I'm one.
[00:42.15] My mother was a tailor,
[00:51.70] She sewed my new blue jeans.
[01:01.55] My father was a gamblin' man.
[01:11.76] Down in New Orleans.
[01:21.13] Now the only thing a gambler needs is
[01:31.51] A suitcase and a trunk.
[01:41.64] And the only time he'll be satisfied
[01:51.95] Is when he's on a drunk.
[02:02.42] Oh mother, tell your children,
[02:12.50] Not to do what I have done.
[02:22.81] Spend your lives in sin and misery
[02:33.30] In the house of the Rising Sun.
[02:43.46] Well I've got one foot on the platform
[02:53.75] The other one on the train
[03:04.01] I'm going back to New Orleans
[03:14.20] To wear that ball and chain
[03:24.04] There is a house in New Orleans
[03:33.99] They call the Rising Sun
[03:43.74] And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
[03:55.91] And God, I know, I'm one
[04:13.22] poor poor boy
