Song | House of the Rising Sun |
Artist | Woody Guthrie |
Album | House of the rising sun |
[00:03.60] | There is a house in New Orleans, |
[00:09.51] | You call the "Rising Sun", |
[00:15.30] | It's been the ruin of many a poor soul |
[00:20.98] | and me,Oh,God, I'm one. |
[00:25.29] | |
[00:26.85] | If I'd listened to what mama said, |
[00:32.37] | I'd be at home today |
[00:38.13] | Being so young and foolish, poor girl |
[00:43.10] | I let a gambler lead me astray |
[00:47.52] | |
[00:48.71] | My mother she's a tailor, |
[00:54.13] | Sews those new blue jeans |
[00:59.50] | My sweetheart, he's a drunkard, Lord God |
[01:04.71] | He drinks down in New Orleans. |
[01:09.33] | |
[01:10.21] | He fills his glasses to the brim, |
[01:15.63] | Passes them around. |
[01:20.87] | The only pleasure that he gets out of life |
[01:26.10] | Is a hobo from town to town. |
[01:30.01] | |
[01:30.83] | The only thing a drunkard needs |
[01:36.57] | Is a suitcase and a trunk. |
[01:42.04] | The only time that he's half satisfied |
[01:46.93] | Is when he's on a drunk. |
[01:50.49] | |
[01:53.14] | Go and tell my baby sister |
[01:58.23] | Never do like I have done. |
[02:03.90] | Shun that house down in New Orleans |
[02:08.92] | That they call that Rising Sun. |
[02:12.65] | |
[02:14.32] | It's one foot on the platform, |
[02:19.16] | One foot on the train. |
[02:24.60] | I'm going back down to New Orleans |
[02:29.40] | To wear my ball and my chain. |
[02:32.68] | |
[02:34.92] | My life is almost over, |
[02:40.02] | My race is almost run. |
[02:44.91] | Going back down to New Orleans |
[02:49.68] | To that house of the Rising Sun |
