THE ANIMALS

ALISA

Verse 1

 THERE is a house in New Orleans
they called the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

 

Verse 2

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gambling man
Down in New Orleans

 

Verse 3

And the only thing a gambler needs

It's a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied

It's when he's a drunk

 

Verse 4

Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what   I have   done  
Spend your lives in sin and misery

In the Hose of the Rising Sun

 

Verse 5

 I’ve got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
  I'm going back   to    New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Verse 6
