House Of The Rising Sun
(von Allen Lomax aufgenommen)
Am C D F
There is a house in New Orleans,
Am C E E7
They call the Rising Sun.
Am C D F
It's been the ruin of many poor girl,
Am E Am E7
And me, O God, for one.
Am C D F
If I had listened what Mamma said,
Am C E E7
I'd been at home today.
Am C D F
Being so young and foolish, poor boy,
Am E Am
Let a rambler lead me astray.
Am C D F
Go tell my baby sister
Am C E E7
Never do like I have done
Am C D F
To shun that house in New Orleans
Am E Am E7
They call the Rising Sun.
Am C D F
My mother she's a tailor;
Am C E E7
She sold those new blue jeans.
Am C D F
My sweetheart, he's a drunkard, Lord,
Am E Am E7
Drinks down in New Orleans.
Am C D F
The only thing a drunkard needs,
Am C E E7
Is a suitcase and a trunk.
Am C D F
The only time he's satisfied,
Am E Am E7
Is when he's on a drunk.
Am C D F
Fills his glasses to the brim,
Am C E E7
Passes them around.
Am C D F
Only pleasure he gets out of life,
Am E Am E7
Is hoboin' from town to town.
Am C D F
One foot is on the platform,
Am C E E7
And the other one on the train.
Am C D F
I'm going back to New Orleans,
Am E Am E7
To wear that ball and chain.
Am C D F
Going back to New Orleans,
Am C E E7
My race is almost run.
Am C D F
Going back to spend the rest of my life,
Am E Am E7
Beneath that Rising Sun.
