House Of The Rising Sun

House Of The Rising Sun - The Animals (动物乐队)

Written by：Alan Price

There is a house in new Orleans

They call the rising sun

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

And god I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor

Sewed my new blue jeans

My father was a gambling man

Down in new Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and trunk

And the only time he's satisfied

Is when he's on a drunk

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 rising sun

I got one foot on the platform

The other foot on the train

I'm going back to new Orleans

To wear that ball and chain

There is a house in new Orleans

They call the rising sun

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

And god I know I'm one
