Peter, Paul & Mary - House of The Rising Sun lyrics
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
It's been the ruin of many poor girls
And me, oh God I am one
If you had listened to what your momma said
You'd be at home today
But I was young and foolish, oh Lord
Yeah, yeah, you let a gambler lead you astray
Go tell my baby, my baby sister
I don't do as I, as I have done
But shun that house in New Orleans
They call the rising sunPeter, Paul & Mary - House of The Rising Sun - http://motolyrics.com/peter-paul-and-mary/house-of-the-rising-sun-lyrics.html
I'm going back to New Orleans
Your race is almost run
I'm going back to lay my head
Beneath that rising sun
There's a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
Yeah it's been the ruin of many poor girls
And me, I'm one, oh God
And me, oh God, I am one
You poor girl, you are one yeah
You poor girl, poor girl
