Píseň: House Of The Rising Sun

Interpret:
Bob Dylan
Album:
Bob Dylan
There is a house down in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl
And me, oh god, Im a one


My mother was a tailor
She sewed these new blue jeans
My sweetheart was a gambler, Lord
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


He fills his glasses up to the brim
And hell pass the cards around
And the only pleasure he gets out of life
Is ramblin from town to town


Oh tell my baby sister
Not to do what I have done
But shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun


Well, it's one foot on the platform
And the other foot on the train
Im goin back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain


Im a goin back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
Im goin back to end my life
Down in the Risin' Sun


There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
Its been the ruin of many poor girl
And me, oh god, Im a one
