bookmark_borderHouse Of The Rising Sun

An old, traditional folk song. The origin is unknown but is believed to have originated in England or France. The song was reworked by blues musicians from the South. The first known recording is from 1933. The song was later made famous by The Animals in the 1960’s.

LYRICS
There is a house 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

My mother was a tailor
Sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin’ man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s on a drunk

Oh mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I’m goin’ back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house 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

Coversong originally made famous by Yes
Written by singer Jon Anderson and guitarist Steve Howe
Cover is performed as a modern dance EDM song

Lyrics

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

The music dance and sing
They make the children really ring
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

I will remember you
Your silhouette will charge the view
Of distance atmosphere
Call it morning driving thru the sound and even in the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land
Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees the rim of the land
The eagle’s dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand

Go closer hold the land feel partly no more than grains of sand
We stand to lose all time a thousand answers by in our hand
Next to your deeper fears we stand surrounded by a million years

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
Twenty four before my love and I’ll be there

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
You spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

You ain't gonna make it with anyone any  how

Maybe it's time for a change

ABOUT THE SONG
This coversong was inspired by the rioting in Baltimore, MD. The people rising up against violence with violence seemed too ironic… too hypocritical. So, the rioters posing to be on TV made me think of this song (for they are The Beautiful People.)

Katmandu.mp3

Katmandu Alt. Version

A coversong inspired by “An earthquake with magnitude 7.8 occurred near Lamjung, Nepal at 06:11:26 UTC on Apr 25, 2015. (This event has been reviewed by a seismologist.)” A tribute to the victims.

Wikipedia –“Katmandu” is a song written and recorded by American rock artist Bob Seger.

Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal. In the ’60s, as many Americans were searching for enlightenment, the city was seen as a panacea for the ills of Western culture. A remote and exotic location, it was also seen as the ultimate getaway, which is how Seger used it in this song.

Bob Seger took a humorous tone, singing about his desire to disappear for a while after dealing with constant touring and record company politics. For him, Kathmandu is used to represent a place far away where no one will bother you.

                     A
I think I'm goin' to Katmandu
       A7                      E7    E
That s really, really where I'm goin' to
              B7
If I ever get out of here
                    E
That what I'm gonna do

E7          A
K-k-k-k-k-k-katmandu
             A7               E7    E
I think it's really where I'm goin' to
              B7
If I ever get out of here
                   E 
I'm goin' to Katmandu

                          A
I got no kick against the West Coast
                         E
Warner Brothers are such good hosts
                              B7
I raise my whiskey glass, and give 'em a toast
                        E
I'm sure they know it's true

                     A
I got no rap against southern states
                        E
Every time I've been there it's been great
                          B7
But now I'm leaving and I can't be late
                 E
And to myself be true

                        A
That's why I'm goin' to Katmandu
          A7                  E7    E
Up to the mountains where I'm goin' to
                   B7
Hey, if I ever get out of here
                    E
That what I'm gonna do
 
E7          A
K-k-k-k-k-k-katmandu
             A7               E7    E
It's really, really where I'm goin' to
              B7
If I ever get out of here
                   E 
I'm goin' to Katmandu
                          A
I got no quarrel with the Midwest
                               E
The folks out there have given me their best
                                   B7
I've lived there all my life, I've been their guest
                      E
I sure have loved it, too

                            A
I'm tired of looking at the TV news
                              E
I'm tired of driving hard and payin' dues
                      B7
I figure, baby, I got nothin' to lose
                   E
I'm tired of being blue

                        A
That s why I'm goin' to Katmandu
          A7                  E7    E
Up to the mountains where I'm goin' to
                   B7
Hey, if I ever get out of here
                    E
That what I'm gonna do

E7          A
K-k-k-k-k-k-katmandu
              A7        E7         E
Take me baby, cause I m going with you
              B7
If I ever get out of here
                   E 
I'm goin' to Katmandu

break

                                A
I ain't got nothin' 'gainst the East Coast
                                E
You want some people, well they got the most
                       B7
New York City's like a friendly old ghost
                       E
You seem to pass right through

                          A
I know I'm gonna miss the USA
                           E
I guess I'll miss it every single day
                         B7
But no one loves me here any way
                   E
I know my plane is due

                        A
The one that s going to Katmandu
          A7                  E7    E
Up to the mountains where I'm goin' to
                   B7
Hey, if I ever get out of here
 
                   E
That what I'm gonna do

E7          A
K-k-k-k-k-k-katmandu
        A7      E7    E
