작사 : Alan Price

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And its been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And God I know Im one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
And my father was a gamblin man
Down in New Orleans
And the only thing
is a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time hes satisfied
Is when hes all drunk
~~~ Organ Solo ~~~
Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Don`t spend your lives
in sin and misery
In the House of the Risin sun
Well, Ive got one foot
on the platform
The other foot on the train
Im going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And its been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And God, I know Im one
