W:Now the only thing a gambler needs
W:Is a suitcase and a trunk,

W:Is when he's all drunk.

W:Not to do what I have done;
W:Spend your lives in sin and misery
W:In the House of the Rising Sun.

W:The other foot on the train
W:I'm going back to New Orleans
W:To wear my ball and chain.
W:
W:Well, there is a house in New Orleans
W:They call the Rising Sun,
W:And it's been the ruin of manya poor boy,
W:And God I know I'm one.
