walls of jericho – house of the rising sun lyrics
Loading...
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,
she sewed my new bluejeans,
my father was a gamblin’ 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 the run.
oh mother tell your children,
not to do what i have done:
to spend your lives in sin and misery,
in the house of the rising sun.
well 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.
well, 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
