Rising Sun Blues

|
Verse 1:
Now there is a house in New Orleans
They call it the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know that I'm one
Verse 2
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My daddy was, he was a gambling man
Down in New Orleans
Verse 3
You know the only thing that a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time that he's ever really satisfied
Is when he's on, on a drunk
Verse 4
I got one foot on the platform
Got the other foot right on the train
Lord, I'm going back, I'm going back down to New Orleans
I'm going to wear that ball and chain
Verse 5
So mothers, tell your children, tell them all
Not to do what I, I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Reprise
Now, 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 know I'm one

Verse 1:
You've never been hungry, never been alone,
You've never been out on the street without a home,
You're so hung up on winning you don't know how it feels to lose,
And baby, pretty baby, now you think you've got the blues.
Verse 2:
Your mama gives you jewelry, daddy buys you cars,
And you can't understand why I play these low-down bars,
Well welcome to the real world, sometimes you don't get to choose
And baby, pretty baby, you think you've got the blues.
(Ah, tell us about it)
Verse 3::
(Ah, one more thing baby -)
You come on so high-class, make me feel second grade,
Just remember baby, virgins are born not made,
Well, I'm out of here now, so I guess you've got the news,
Well baby, pretty baby, NOW you've got the blues!
(Bye-bye, baby!)

On The Blue Side

|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Black cat howlin' in the alleyway
Middle of the night, no sign of day,
All alone and I'm about to lose my mind,
On the blue side.
Verse 2:
Shadows hide me for a little while
Searchin' everywhere for that lover's smile
There's no tellin' what you might find
On the blue side.
Bridge:
Stray dog barkin' at nothin' much,
At the wind blowin' through the shadows and such.
Got my collar up against the cold
Here on the blue side with nothin' to hold.
Verse 3:
Sun's comin' up, I can't stand the light
I'll stay in the shadows until tonight
Find a place for my heart to hide
On the blue side
On the blue side

I know you could if you only would
Shake that thing
Yeah, shake that thing
You gotta shake that thing if you want to get along with me
Verse 3
Hey now darling, I don’t want to fight,
if you won't shake it your sister might
Shake that thing
She might shake that thing
Hey, you gotta shake that thing if you want to get along with me
Verse 4
You know, shaking that thing, it feels so fine,
you shake yours and I'll shake mine
Shake that thing
Come on, shake that thing
You gotta shake that thing if you want to get along with me
Verse 5:
Well, all you women, stand in line,

Dusty Woods Clementsvale, Nova Scotia
Born in BC, Canada in 1947, Dusty started performing in bands in his early teens. He was always honing his craft, learning
stagecraft from more experienced performers.
Dusty passed away in Nova Scotia in 2017. The man is gone, but his music lives on. Dusty's online presence is managed by Mrs. Dusty (Jeri-Lynn Woods). My goal is to share the magic and keep the Dusty Woods legacy alive.
