lyrics

THE HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN

There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun.
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girls,
And God I know I'm one.

My mother was a tailor,
She sewed my new blue jeans.
My husband is a gamblin' man,
Down in New Orleans.

My husband is a gambler
He goes from town to town
And the only time he is satisfied
Is when he drinks his liqueur down

Oh mother, tell your children,
Not to do what I have done.
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the Rising Sun.

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

Going back to New Orleans,
My race is almost run
I'm going to spend the rest of my life
Beneath that Rising Sun

TRADUCTION

LA MAISON DU SOLEIL LEVANT

Il y a une maison à la Nouvelle Orléans,
Qu'ils appellent le Soleil Levant.
Elle a été la ruine de pas mal de pauvres filles,
Et Dieu sait que j'en suis une.

Ma mère était couturière,
Elle cousait mes nouveaux blue-jeans.
Mon mari est un joueur,
Là-bas à la Nouvelle Orléans.

Mon mari est un joueur
Il va de ville en ville
Et le seul moment où il est satisfait
C'est quand il finit sa bouteille

Oh mère, dis à tes enfants,
De ne pas faire ce que j'ai fait.
Passer sa vie dans le péché et la misère
Dans la maison du Soleil Levant.

J'ai un pied sur le quai,
L'autre dans le train.
Je reviens à la Nouvelle Orléans
Pour porter ce fardeau...

Je reviens à la Nouvelle Orléans
Ma route est presque finie
Je vais passer le reste de ma vie
Sous ce Soleil Levant

Because we’re brothers and sisters.
From the same mother.
But from different fathers.
Brothers from other fathers.
We play some bluegrass music.
Some old west folk and country too.
We’re from Toulouse, Kentucky. ... more
