House Of The Rising Sun (stolen title)

House of the Rising Sun

The Animals

I only mention the title, because as you will see far my picture of the meaning of the letter, but would fail to my essence if not clarified, about this title.

My mother, she was a tailor

Sewed these new bluejeans

My father was a gamblin 'man

Way down in New Orleans

My mother, she would look at me

She said, they are, you've got a long road ahead

They are, some may roll and make you crazy

But do not forget these words I said

And do not forget what your name is

And know what the game is

From the North coast to the South coast

From country to country

Mind to mind

Generation to generation

From time to time

And to sniff across your mind

To go downtown

And to hang around

The House of The Rising Sun

Mother was a tailor

Sewed these new blue-jeans

Father was a gamblin 'man, yea yea

Way down, way down, in New Orleans

And the only thing a gambling man needs

Is some cash, ooh lord, and a trunk

And the only time he's satisfied, already

Is when ...

Ya-aah, board and bought, oh no

To where, I do belong

I'm wandering back

To earn my pays, in The House

They call, the Rising Sun

Mother tell your baby children, yea yea

Do not do the things that I've done

Spend your life in without and misery

In The House, they call, the Rising Sun

Ohh

House, of The Rising, Sun

I think few understood the lyrics. speaks of a brothel, game house, ...

This is a sad song ........ those who have been walking out of the "house of the rising sun" in 5 am with empty pockets, fake dreams and lots of debts .... and straight to the end of the rope or under a train ... or those who have been lucky enough to have some kind of support, family or friends and managed to escape the terrible destiny but still scarred for the rest of their life ... there is a saying : king at midnight, beggar at dawn .... kids..don't go down that road ... the house always wins .....
