LYRICS (中英歌詞) :
There is a house in New Orleans
在紐奧良有一棟房子
They call the Rising Sun
他們稱之為 “日昇之屋”
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
這個屋子已經毀掉了很多窮苦孩子的未來
And God, I know I’m one
上帝啊，我知道我也是其中之一
My mother was a tailor
我老媽是個裁縫師
She sewed my new blue jeans
她為我縫製新的藍色牛仔褲
My father was a gambling man

Down in New Orleans
他則遠在南方的紐奧良
The only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and trunk
就是一只小手提箱和一個大行李箱
And the only time he’s satisfied
他唯一滿足的時候
Is when he’s on a drunk
就是喝得爛醉時
Oh mother, tell your children
老媽啊，告訴妳的孩子們
Not to do what I have done
千萬別步入我的後塵
Spend your lives in sin and misery
在罪惡與悲慘中度過餘生
In the House of the Rising Sun
在那 “日昇之屋”
Well, I got one foot on the platform
我一腳還在月台上
The other foot on the train
另一腳已上了火車
I’m going back to New Orleans
我正要回到紐奧良服刑
To wear that ball and chain
回去戴上腳銬與鎖鏈
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
在紐奧良有一棟房子
They call the Rising Sun
他們稱之為 “日昇之屋”
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
這個屋子已經毀掉了很多窮苦孩子的未來
And God, I know I’m one
上帝啊，我知道我也是其中之一
