There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And Lord I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's gone and drunk
Oh mother tell your children
Not to go and do what I have done
To spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot it's on the train
I'm goin' going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And Lord I know I'm one

日昇之屋
在紐奧良有棟屋子
大家叫它「日昇之屋」
很多窮小孩在此毀掉一生
我知道,因為我就住在這裡
我的母親是個裁縫
她為我縫製新牛仔褲
我的父親是個賭鬼
在紐奧良南方
現在,這個賭鬼唯一需要的
是行李箱與大皮箱
他唯一感到滿足的時候
是他醉到不省人事的時候
噢!媽媽,請告訴孩子們
別步上我的後塵
那'日昇之屋'
會讓人活在罪惡與悲慘中
我一腳踏在月台
另一腳踏在火車車廂上
我正要回到紐奧良
回去戴上腳銬與鎖鏈
在紐奧良有棟屋子
大家叫它「日昇之屋」
很多窮小孩在此毀掉一生
我知道,因為我就住在這裡
