House of Rising Sun (Cover Song with Revised Lyric)
By Doug Buche, copr 2009.
Guitar Intro:
1st Verse:
There is a house in New Orleans,
they call the Rising Sun, and
it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
and God I know I'm one
2nd Verse:
My mother was a tailor.
She sewed up, these torn up blue jeans.
My father, he was a gamblin' man,
down in New Orleans
3rd Verse:
Now the only thing a gambler needs,
is a suitcase and trunk,
and the only time that he is satisfied,
is when he's on a drunk.
------ guitar solo ------
Oh mother tell your children (your children),
not to do (not to do, not to do) what I have done.
Dont spend your lives, dont spend your lives, dont spend your
lives in misery, in the House of the Rising Sun.
Ive got one foot on the platform,
my other foot is way out in space.
Yah, yah, I'm goin' back (Im goin back, Im going back,
to New Orleans to wear that ball and chain.
Well, there is a house in New Orleans,
they call the Rising Sun,
And it's been (yes its been) the ruin of many a poor boy
and God, God, I know I'm one (Yes, I know Im one, I know Im
one, I know Im one). God I know Im one.
