House of the Rising Sun Lyrics

	My mother was a tailor
	She sewed these new blue jeans
	My father was a gambler
	Down in New
	Orleans The only thing a gambler needs
	His suitcase and a trunk
	The only pleasure he gets out of life
	When he’s all drunk
	I know the song
	I sing when
	I spend my time in
	Down at the
	Rising Sun
	So mother tell your children
	Not to do what
	I have done
	Spend my life in — sitting in misery
	Down at the
	Rising Sun

	My mother was a tailor
	She sewed these new blue jeans
	My father was a gambler
	Down in New
	Orleans The only thing a gambler needs
	His suitcase and a trunk
	The only pleasure he gets out of life
	When he' s all drunk
	I know the song
	I sing when
	I spend my time in
	Down at the
	Rising Sun
	So mother tell your children
	Not to do what
	I have done
	Spend my life in sitting in misery
	Down at the
	Rising Sun

	My mother was a tailor
	She sewed these new blue jeans
	My father was a gambler
	Down in New
	Orleans The only thing a gambler needs
	His suitcase and a trunk
	The only pleasure he gets out of life
	When he' s all drunk
	I know the song
	I sing when
	I spend my time in
	Down at the
	Rising Sun
	So mother tell your children
	Not to do what
	I have done
	Spend my life in sitting in misery
	Down at the
	Rising Sun
