  sözleri ise ;
  there is a house way down 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
  
  mother was a tailor, yeah, yeah
  sewed my levi jeans
  my father was a gamblin' man, yeah, yeah
  down, way down in new orleans
  
  now the only thing a gamblin' man ever needs
  is a suitcase, lord, and a trunk
  and the only time a fool like him is satisfied
  is when he's all stone cold drunk
