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

Oh mother, tell your children

Not to do what I have done
千萬別像我一樣
Spend your lives in sin and misery
把人生浪費在罪惡和悲慘中
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform

The other foot on the train

I’m goin’ back to New Orleans

To wear that ball and chain
