Lyrics:
There is a house in New OrleansThey call the Rising SunIt's been the ruin of many poor girlsAnd me, oh God, am one If you had listened to what your momma saidYou'd be at home todayBut I was young and foolish, oh LordYou let a gambler lead you astray Go tell my baby sisterDon't do as I have doneBut shun that house in New OrleansThey call the Rising Sun I'm going back to New OrleansYour race is almost runI'm going back to lay my headBeneath that rising sun There is a house in New OrleansThey call the Rising SunIt's been the ruin of many poor girlsAnd me, I'm one, oh GodAnd me, oh God, am one You poor girl, you are one
