House Of The Rising Sun

Lyricist：Alan (arr) Price

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 blue jeans
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

日昇之屋(The House of the Rising Sun) - 動物合唱團(The Animals)
(中文微翻譯歌詞 by DCX)

在紐奧良，有一棟房子
他們稱之為「日昇之屋」
有許多的窮苦小孩在這毀了一生
神啊，我知道，我就是其中一員

我的母親是位裁縫師
她縫製好我的新牛仔褲
我的父親是位賭徒
就在紐奧良南方(down in:在...南方 或 在...街上)

而現在，這賭鬼唯一需要的
是個手提箱及行李箱

他唯一能感到滿足的時候
就是他完全喝醉之時

噢！媽媽啊，請告訴妳的孩子
別步入我的後塵
在罪惡及苦難中度過餘生
就在那「日昇之屋」中

我一隻腳站在月台
而另一隻腳踏在了火車上
我正要回到紐奧良
回去戴上鐵球及腳銬

有一棟房子，就位在紐奧良
他們稱之為「日昇之屋」
有許多的窮苦小孩在這毀了一生
神啊，我知道，我就是其中一員
