The Animals
A, Am, C, D, E, Em, F, G
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
And it's been the ruin of many
poor boy and God I know
I'm one
My mother
was a
a tailor. She 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 a 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.
Spend your lives in sin and misery.
It's the house of the rising sun.
I've got one foot on the platform.
The other foot on the frame
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball I changed
And God, you know I won
