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
She sewed my new bluejeans
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

Tanita Tikaram -Twist In My Sobriety

Tanita Tikaram -Twist In My Sobriety Lyrics All good children need traveling shoes Drive your problems from here All good people read good books Now your conscience is clear I hear you talk girl Now your conscience is clear In the morning when I wipe my brow Wipe the miles away I like to think I can be so willed And never do what you say I'll never hear you And never do what you say Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety We just picked a little empty pie For the fun that people had at night Late at night don't need hostility Timid smile and forts too free I don't care about their different thoughts Different thoughts are good for me Up in arms and chased in whole All God's children took their toll Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know...

Rush - Tom Sawyer

Rush - Tom Sawyer Lyrics A modern day warrior Mean, mean stride Today's Tom Sawyer Mean, mean pride Though his mind is not for rent Don't put him down as arrogant His reserve, a quiet defense Riding out the day's events The river What you say about his company Is what you say about society Catch the mist, catch the myth Catch the mystery, catch the drift The world is, the world is Love and life are deep Maybe as his skies are wide Today's Tom Sawyer He gets high on you And the space he invades He gets by on you No his mind is not for rent To any god or government Always hopeful, yet discontent He knows changes aren't permanent But change is What you say about his company Is what you say about society Catch the witness, catch the wit Catch the spirit, catch the spit The world is, the world is Love and life are deep Maybe as his eyes are wide Exit the warrior Today's Tom Sawyer He gets high on you And the energy...

Alphaville - Sounds Like A Melody

Alphaville-Sounds Like A Melody Lyrics It's a trick of my mind To faces bathing in the screenlight She's so soft and warm in my arms I tune it into the scene My hand are resting on her shoulders When we're dancing away for a while Oh, we're moving, we're falling, we step into the fire By the hour of the wolf in a midnight dream There's no reason to hurry, just start that brand new story Set it alight, we're head over heels in love Head over heels The ringing of your laughter it sounds like a melody To once forbidden places we'll go for a while It's the definite show Our shadows resting in the moonlight It's so clear and bright in your eyes It's the touch of your sighs My lips are resting on your shoulder When we're moving so soft and slow We need the extasy, the jelousy, the comedy of love Like the cary grants and kellys once before Give me more tragedy, more harmony and phantasy, my ***d e a r*** And set it...
