House Of The Rising Sun Lyrics - American Idol

There is a house in New Orleans 

It? s called the Rising Sun 

It's been the ruin of many a poor boy 

And Lord I know of one If he had heard what Daddy said 

He? d be a King today 

But he knew best, what he should do 

And he was on his way He soon became a travellin? man He? s travelled from town to town 

The path he took was good to him 

Till he drank his liquor down ------ Guitar solo ------ Then he woke up a body died 

Realised what he had done 

Remembered what is daddy said? bout the House of the Rising Sun There is a house in New Orleans 

It? s called the Rising Sun 

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

And Lord I know of one 

And Lord I know of one yes I do I really know, I know of oneyes I do I know of one, yea
