House of the Rising Sun

Joan Baez、Richard Thompson、David Bromberg - House of the Rising Sun (Live)

Written by：Alan Price

There is a house in New Orleans

They call the rising sun

It has been the ruin of many a poor girl

And me oh god I'm one

My mother was a Taylor she sewed our new blue jeans

My father was a gambling man down in New Orleans

The only thing a drunkard needs is a suitcase and a trunk

The only time he's satisfied is when he's on a drunk

Go tell my baby sisters

Don't do what I have done

To shun that house in New Orleans

They call the rising sun

And going back to New Orleans

My race is almost run

I'm going back to spend my life

Beneath the rising sun
