The House of the Rising Sun

Dolly Parton

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 Please the Men
At the House of the Rising Sun

There Is a House
Down 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 Telling All Your Daughters
Not to Do What I've 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
