Title: The House Of The Rising Sun
在新奧爾良有一棟房子

他們稱之為“日昇之屋”
There is a house in New Orleans
它是許多窮小子邁向毀滅的地方
They call the Rising Sun
上帝在上我知道我就是其中之一
And its been the ruin of many a young poor boy
我的母親是個裁縫
And, God, I know Im one
為我縫製嶄新的藍色牛仔褲

我的父親是個賭徒
My mother was a tailor
一路穿過新奧爾良
Sewed my new blue jeans
現在他唯一需要的是
My father was a gamblin man
一個行李箱和一輛皮卡
Down in New Orleans
唯一讓他志得意滿的時刻
Now the only thing he ever needs
是他喝醉的時候
Is a suitcase and a trunk
噢母親告誡你的孩子
And the only time hes satisfied
不要重蹈我的覆轍
Is when hes on a drunk
一生充滿了罪孽和不幸

就在那“日昇之屋”
Oh, Mother tell your children
他一腳立於月台
Not to do what I have done
一腳踏上了火車
Spend your lives in sin and misery
我知道他將回到新奧爾良
In the House of the Rising Sun
重新戴上人生的枷鎖

好吧在新奧爾良有一棟房子
With one foot on the platform
他們稱之為“日昇之屋”
And the other foot on the train
它是許多窮小子邁向毀滅的地方
I know hes back to New Orleans
上帝在上我知道我就是其中之一
To wear that ball and chain
在新奧爾良有一棟房子

Well there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And its been the ruin of many a young poor boy
And, God, I know Im one
