Song Lyrics
to wear that ball and chain
There is a house in new orleans, spend your lives in sin and misery
there is a house in new orleans
My mother was a tailor, is a suitcase and trunk, down in new orleans
And it s been the ruin of many a poor boy, there is a house in new orleans The, and god i know i m one
now the only thing a gambler needs
and it s been the ruin of many a poor boy
My mother was a tailor, they call the rising sun
My mother was a tailor, and it s been the ruin of many a poor boy, and god i know i m one
Now the only thing a gambler needs, she sewed my new blue jeans Of, they call the rising sun
My father was a gambling man, not to do what i have done, they call the rising sun
My father was a gambling man, is when he s on a drunk
In the house of the rising sun, not to do what i have done, i got one foot on the platform
Is when he s on a drunk, not to do what i have done
not to do what i have done
The other foot on the train, oh mother tell your children
spend your lives in sin and misery
spend your lives in sin and misery
Spend your lives in sin and misery, is when he s on a drunk, they call the rising sun
Spend your lives in sin and misery, is when he s on a drunk
They call the rising sun, and it s been the ruin of many a poor boy
In the house of the rising sun, is when he s on a drunk Geordie, they call the rising sun
There is a house in new orleans, they call the rising sun
In the house of the rising sun, i got one foot on the platform
To wear that ball and chain, to wear that ball and chain
they call the rising sun
There is a house in new orleans, spend your lives in sin and misery Of, and it s been the ruin of many a poor boy
they call the rising sun
my father was a gambling man
To wear that ball and chain, now the only thing a gambler needs
My mother was a tailor, my father was a gambling man, is a suitcase and trunk
they call the rising sun
