Declan Galbraith - House Of The Rising Sun lyrics

rate me

There is a house in New Orleans

It's called the Rising Sun

It's been the ruin of many a poor boy

And Lord I know of one

If he had heard what Daddy said

He'd be a King today

But he knew best, what he should do

And he was on his way

He soon became a travellin' man

He's travelled from town to town

The path he took was good to him

Till he drank his liquor down

------ Guitar solo ------

Then he woke up *at thirty-five*

Realised what he had done

Remembered what is daddy said

'bout the House of the Rising Sun

There is a house in New Orleans

It's called the Rising Sun

*And* it's been the ruin of many a poor boy

And Lord I know of one

And Lord I know of one

Yes I do

I really know

I know of one

Yes I do

I know of one, yea
