There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I’m one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin’ man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s on a drunk
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
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I’m goin’ 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 God I know I’m one
Prevod na srspki
Kuća izlazećeg sunca
Ima jedna kuća u Nju Orleansu
Zovu je Izlazak sunca
Uništila ie život mnogim sirotim dečacima
Ja sam, bože, jedan od njih
Majka mi je bila krojač
Sašila mi je nove farmerice
Otac mi je bio kockar
Dole, u Nju Orleansu
Sve što kockaru treba su
Jedan kofer i sanduk
I zadovoljan je samo
Kada je pijan
O, majko, reci svojoj deci
Da ne čine ono što sam ja učinio
Nemojte provesti život u grehu i bedi
U kući izlazećeg sunca
Jedna noga mi je na peronu
A druga mi je u vozu
Vraćam se u Nju Orleans
Da nosim bukagije oko nogu
Ima jedna kuća u Nju Orleansu
Zovu je Izlazak sunca
Uništila je život mnogim sirotim dečacima
Ja sam, bože, jedan od njih
