House of the Rising Sun Lyrics

House of the Rising Sun - Alt-J (三角乐队)

There is a house in New Orleans

 

They call the Rising Sun

 

And it's been the ruin of many a poor soul

 

And Lord my father's one

 

My mother she's a tailor

She sews those new blue jeans

 

To keep my gambling father drunk

Deep down in New Orleans

 

It's a happy happy happy happy fun day day

 

Like a bird flying over forest fire

 

My father feels the heat beneath his wings

 

And in debt he leaves for another town

 

Where he gambles and drunk he still drinks

 

My mother hides from pleasure

 

And thinks of Father on her knees

 

Lifted in the arms of God

 

Away from New Orleans

 

Happy happy happy happy fun day day

 

 

Happy happy happy happy fun day day

.
