Titel: House Of The Rising Sun
Artist: Georgia Turner
Album: Alan Lomax: Popular Songbook (2003)
(von Allen Lomax aufgenommen)
There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun.
It's been the ruin of many poor girl,
And me, O God, for one.
Go tell my baby sister
Never do as I have done
To shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun.
My mother she's a tailor;
She sold those new blue jeans.
My sweetheart, he's a drunkard, Lord, Lord,
Drinks down in New Orleans.
The only thing that a drunkard needs,
Is a suitcase or a trunk.
The only time he's satisfied,
Is when he's on a drunk.
One foot is on the platform,
And the other one on the train.
I'm going back to New Orleans,
To wear that ball and chain.
