Lyrics
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many poor girl
And my little sister was one
If she had only listened to what Mama said
She'd be at home today
But she was so young and foolish
Oh God, she let her gamblers lead her astray
She said, "Go tell my baby sister
Don't do what I have done
Tell her to shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun"
She said, "I'm going back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
I'm going back to spend my day
Beneath the Rising Sun"
Beneath the Rising Sun
Beneath the Rising Sun
Beneath the Rising Sun
