House Of The Rising Sun
(HH 5334) Lanny Weaklend
OPENER - CLOSER
Grand Square
There is a house
In New Orleans
They call the
Rising Sun
Allemande and Weave
And it's been the ruin
Of many a poor boy
And God, I know
I'm one
FIGURE
Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
In the house
Of the rising sun
MIDDLE BREAK
Grand Square
Oh, mothers tell
Your children
Not to do what I
Have done
Allemande and Weave
Don't spend you life
In sin and misery
In the house
Of the rising sun
TAG
And God, I know I'm one
