Lyrics
There is a house in New Orleans
And it's called the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a good boy
And I should know I'm one
Mother ran a sex shop
Full of jacks and queens
Father was just clientel
He quickly left the scene
I was raised by Sam the maid
She kept me nice and thin
She said you'll learn to love it boy
Just relax and let it in
The only thing an addict needs
Is a needle and a spoon
The only time he needs a fix
Is when the clock strikes soon
Oh ladies don't have children
Avoid them like the plague
And keep a short leash round the necks
Of hired hands and maids
There is a house in New Orleans
And it's called the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And I should know I'm one
