Dolly Parton "The House of the Rising Sun" |
(Alan Price) There is a house down in New Orleans Down in the Vieux Carr'e A house they call the Rising Sun Where love and money are made. My father he was a gambler Mother died when I was young And I've worked since then to pleasure the men At the house of the Rising Sun. There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun It's been the ruin of many a good girl And oh God, you know I'm one. So mothers you go tellin' all your daughters Not to do what I have done To live a life of sin, shame and strife In the house of the Rising Sun. There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun It's been the ruin of many a good girl And oh God, you know I'm one. Oh God, you know I'm one... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
