House of the Rising Sun

House of the Rising Sun - Joan Baez/Dirk Powell

Composed by：Traditional

Arranged by：Joan Baez

There is a house in New Orleans

They call the rising sun

And it's been the ruin for many poor girl

And me oh God for one

If I had listened to what my mother said

I'd have been at home today

But I was young and foolish oh God

Let a rambler lead me astray

Oh the only thing again need

Is case and drunk

And the only time

Is that for me

Is when is on the drunk

Go tell my baby sister

Don't do what I have done

But shun that house in New Orleans

They call the rising sun

I'm going back to New Orleans

My race is almost run

I'm going back to spend my life

Beneath the rising sun
