[00:00:00] Title: The House Of The Rising Sun
[00:03.42]
[00:10.77] There is a house in New Orleans
[00:17.09] They call the 'Rising Sun'
[00:23.45] And it's been the ruin of many a young poor boy
[00:29.24] And, God, I know I'm one
[00:34.58]
[00:45.00] My mother was a tailor
[00:51.05] Sewed my new blue jeans
[00:57.80] My father was a gamblin' man
[01:04.00] Down in New Orleans
[01:18.31] Now the only thing he ever needs
[01:25.47] Is a suitcase and a trunk
[01:31.83] And the only time he's satisfied
[01:37.56] Is when he's on a drunk
[01:42.14]
[02:25.91] Oh, Mother tell your children
[02:32.11] Not to do what I have done
[02:38.83] Spend your lives in sin and misery
[02:44.75] In the House of the Rising Sun
[02:50.00]
[02:59.70] With one foot on the platform
[03:05.72] And the other foot on the train
[03:11.84] I know he's back to New Orleans
[03:18.08] To wear that ball and chain
[03:22.63]
[03:31.92] Well there is a house in New Orleans
[03:39.03] They call the 'Rising Sun'
[03:45.20] And its been the ruin of many a young poor boy
[03:50.81] And, God, I know I'm one
[03:55.50]
