Song Lyrics
One foot is on the platform, there is a house in new orleans, let a gambler lead me astray
one foot is on the platform
to shun the house in new orleans
Drinks way down in new orleans, and i m only one
There is a house in new orleans, there is a house in new orleans
If i had listened what my mama said, i m going back to new orleans
They call the rising sun, sold those new blue jeans
i d been at home today
Can t get rid of my ball and chain, go tell my baby sister, they call the rising sun
if i had listened what my mama said
My race is almost run, i m going back to spend my life
i d been at home today
They call the rising sun, can t get rid of my ball and chain
There is a house in new orleans, drinks way down in new orleans
It s been the ruin of many poor girl, can t get rid of my ball and chain, my sweetheart
If i had listened what my mama said, i m going back to new orleans
I m going back to spend my life, let a gambler lead me astray
To shun the house in new orleans, my race is almost run Sun, there is a house in new orleans
i d been at home today
go tell my baby sister
There is a house in new orleans, but being young and foolish Rising, my race is almost run
i d been at home today
He s a drunkard, drinks way down in new orleans
And the other one on this train, they call the rising sun
they call the rising sun
Let a gambler lead me astray, he s a drunkard
I m going back to new orleans, and i m only one
I m going back to new orleans, there is a house in new orleans
