ΤΡΑΓΟΥΔΟΥΝ ΟΙ ANIMALS


THE HOUSE OF RISING SUN

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



Παλιά αμερικανική (ενδεχομένως και αγγλική) μπαλλάντα που έκαναν παγκόσμια επιτυχία οι Animals το 1964. H τότε σύνθεση του μεγάλου συγκροτήματος: Eric Burdon (φωνή), Alan Price (όργανο και κήμπορντς), Hilton Valentine (κιθάρα), John Steel (ντραμς), and Bryan "Chas" Chandler (μπάσο).
