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
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

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, 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

I discovered you about a year ago on youtube and have listened to every song from you I could find. A year ago I wrote "Please don't let Hollywood chew you up and spit you out. Remain true, remain pure and keep a level of innocence as they and your voice are your strength.

Thank you Charlotte! This song became my favorite song around 1965. I performed it for the first time playing on the dance floor ... Never forget - you and your songs are loved and listened to with pleasure in Russia! Fly to our competition, everyone will be very happy for your arrival!

OMG...What...What...A 13 yo female vocal beast, the house of the rising sun will never be the same!! Smooth operator!😉💖

[RichardPowell]

Fabulous cover Charlotte. You did total justice to this awesome song!

[michaelc.]

Miss Charlotte ....That was another great, emotionally charged performance ! Absolutely love how you pour every ounce of your creativity into every song ! Another powerful presentation ! You are light years ahead of your time * Enjoy the moments~~~~ We certainly are ~

[kenbaker]

Incredible--- She at 13 has so much soul. She can take classic songs, hold the original theme in her hands yet hurl it out past her vocal cords and make it her own version, with an artistic force that was only there for artists much older than 13 years of age. I am just blown away by her gifts. It's almost unnatural for that much soul, in that young of a body. (wow)
