There is a house in New Orleans
Never been a myself
They call the rising sun
Been the ruin of many a boys
God I know a bobby's one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My daddy was a gamblin' man
Oh did down in New Orleans
I got one foot on this platform
I got the other foot on the train
Lord that taking me down
To New Orleans I gotta way that falling chain baby
Going tell my little brother
Now don't you do to think
Oh your spend your life
In misuri
And the house on new rise in sun
Well there is a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor boys
Lord I know I'm one
