Verse 1
The Devil went down to Georgia, He was looking for a soul to steal
He was in a bind, he was way behind,& he was willing to make a deal
When he came across a young boy, with a guitar and playin it hard
The devil jumped up on a Hickory stump, & said boy let me tell you what
Well you play a pretty good guitar boy, but give the devil his due
I got a guitar of gold, against your soul, to say Im better than you
CHORUS 2
There is a house in New Orleans, & its called the Rising Sun
& its been the ruin, of many a poor boy, and God I know Im one
Oh mothers tell your children, Not to do what I have done
Spend their lives in sin and misery, In the house of the Rising Sun
Verse 2
The boy said my name is Johnny, & it might be a sin
But I?ll take your bet, & your gonna regret, Cos Im the best theres ever been
Johnny played his old black Strat so fast that his hands began to bleed
He was playing for his soul, a guitar of gold, & to beat the devils greed
When Johnny was done, The Devil spun cos he knew that he?d been beat
And he laid that golden guitar on the ground at Johnnys feet
CHORUS 2
There is a house in New Orleans, & its called the Rising Sun
& its been the ruin, of many a poor boy, and God I know Im one
Oh mothers tell your children, Not to do what I have done
Spend their lives in sin and misery, In the house of the Rising Sun
GUITAR SOLO
There is a house in New Orleans, & its called the rising sun
& its been the ruin, of may a poor boy, and God I know Im one
