jandek - house of the rising sun lyrics
Loading...
there is a house in new orleans,
they call the rising sun.
it`s been the ruin for many a poor girl, and me, oh lord, i`m one.
my mother was a taylor, she sewed our new blue jeans,
my father was a gambling man, down in new orleans.
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 mothers, tell your children not to do what i have done,
to spend their lives in sin and misery
in the house of 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
