[Chorus]
There is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I'm one

[Verse 2]
Mother was a tailor
She sewed my chaperon
My father was a gambling man
Down, in Orléans

[Verse 3]
The only thing a gambler requires
Is a satchel and his luck
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s in his cups

[Verse 4]
Oh mothers tell thy children
Not to do what I have done
I spent my life in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

[Verse 5]
I’ve one foot in the stirrup
The other on the ground
I shall return to Orléans
To bе lost, and never found
[Chorus]
Therе is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I'm one
