| [00:07.39] |
There is a house down in New Orleans |
| [00:14.28] |
They call the Rising Sun |
| [00:20.94] |
And many poor boy to distrut she has gone |
| [00:27.71] |
And me, oh God, for one |
| [00:37.19] |
Just fill the glasses to the brim |
| [00:43.40] |
Let the drinks go merrily around |
| [00:50.03] |
And we'll drink to the health of a rounder poor boy |
| [00:56.99] |
Who goes from town to town |
| [01:04.43] |
The only thing that a rounder needs |
| [01:10.79] |
Is a suitcase and a trunk |
| [01:17.64] |
And the only time he's satisfied |
| [01:24.55] |
Is when he's on a drunk |
| [01:58.58] |
Now boys, don't believe what a girl tells you |
| [02:05.65] |
Though her eyes be blue or brown |
| [02:12.71] |
Unless she's on some scaffold high |
| [02:19.63] |
Saying, "Boys, I can't come down" |
| [02:26.76] |
I'm going back, back to New Orleans |
| [02:33.61] |
For my race is nearly run |
| [02:40.44] |
Gonna spend the rest of my wicked life |
| [02:47.32] |
Beneath that Rising Sun |
