Pete Seeger - House Of The Rising Sun lyrics

There is a house down in new orleans Down in the vieux carre A house they call the rising sun Where love and money are made My father he was a gambler Mother died when I was young And Ive worked since then To please the men At the house of the rising sun There is a house Down in New Orleans They call the rising sun Its been the ruin of many a good girl And oh god, you know I'm one So mothers you go telling all your daughters Not to do what I've done To live a life of sin, shame and strife In the house of the rising sun There is a house in New Orleans They call the rising sun Its been the ruin of many a good girl And oh god, you know I'm one Oh god, you know I'm one
