[Intro]

There is a house in Sin City

They call The Rising Sun

And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy

And, God, I know I'm one

[Verse 1]

My mother was a tailor

She sewed my new blue jeans

My father was a gamblin' man

Down in Sin City

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

Now, the only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and a trunk

And the only time he's satisfied

Is when he's on a drunk

[Verse 3]

Well, I've got one foot on the platform

The other's on the train

I'm goin' back to Sin City

To wear that ball and chain

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

Well, others, tell your children

Never do what I have done

Spend your lives in sin and misery

In the House of the Rising Sun

In the House of the Rising Sun

[Outro]

Well, there's a house in Sin City

They call the Rising Sun

And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy

And God knows that I, I'm one
