Waylon Jennings - House Of The Rising Sun lyrics

(Alan Price - arr. Waylon Jennings)

There is a house down in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many poor boys and me
Oh God, I'm one.

My mother was a taylor
She sowed these old blue jeans
My father was a gambler
Lord, down in New Orleans.

The only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
'Cause the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk.Waylon Jennings - House Of The Rising Sun - http://motolyrics.com/waylon-jennings/house-of-the-rising-sun-lyrics.html

Mothers tell you children
Not to do the the things I've done
Outshine that house down in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun.

I've got one foot on the platform
The other foots on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain.

There is a house down in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many poor boys and me
Oh God, I'm one...
