|
there is a house in new orleans, |
|
it's call the "rising sun", |
|
and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy, |
|
and lord, i know i'm one. |
|
if he had heard what daddy said |
|
he'll be a king today |
|
but he knew best what he should do |
|
and he was on his way |
|
he should became a travelling man |
|
he's travelled from town to town |
|
the past he do was good to him |
|
to a drink he's let her down |
|
then he woke up at early five |
|
realized what he had done |
|
remember the words his daddy said |
|
about the house of the rising sun |
