HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN In Finnish: New Orleansissa on paikka jota sanotaan Nousevan auringon taloksi. Se on raunioittanut monen tyttöpoloisen elämän - ja voi luojani - minä olin yksi heistä. Äitini oli ammatiltaan vaatturi hän neuloi minulle siniset farkkuni; Rakkainpani oli ammattipeluri jossakin New Orleansin suunnalla. Ainut mitä ammattipeluri tarvitsee on salkku ja matka-arkku. Ja hän on onnellinen vain kun on juovuksissaan. Mene ja kerro nuorimmalle pikkusiskolleni ettei tee mitä minä olen tehnyt! ja kerro että karttaisi paikkaa New Orleansissa jota Nousevan auringon taloksi sanotaan. - Timo Kinnunen - There is a house down in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun, And it's been the ruin of many poor girl And me, oh, God, I'm one. My mother was a tailor, She sewed these new blue jeans. My sweetheart was a gambler, Lord, Down in New Orleans. Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk; And the only time when he's satisfied Is when he's on a drunk. He fills his glasses up to the brim And he'll pass the cards around, And the only pleasure he gets out of life Is rambling from town to town. Oh tell my baby sister Not to do what I have done, But shun that house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun. Well, it's one foot on the platform and the other foot on the train, I'm going back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain. I'm going back to New Orleans, My race is almost run; I'm going back to end my life Down in the Rising Sun. There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun, It's been the ruin of many poor girl And me, oh, God, I'm one. - Trad. - Kunnellaksesi lauluni siirry taltioimalleni SunPont -sivulle Radicenter palvelimella klikkaamalla tästä
