[Verse 1: Tuka]
You called me today, you told me you were gonna die
(Father, father, father)
What was I gonna say? Sorry, I don’t wanna lie
(My father, father, father)
You remind me of this old folk song that got passed around
You used to sing it
I bet the songs that you sang inside of that pub
Didn’t just pay for your dinner
Party like an animal
It was a party with the animals
[Verse 2: Tuka]
Sink a lot of liquor, kiss a lot of women
How many could you pick up?
I’m one in six
Sittin' pretty in the middle of a litter
Mum said you’re the reason I stutter
One day she got sick again, it hit her
You could have had it all
Instead, she had enough
[Chorus: alt-J]
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor soul
And, Lord, my father's one
You called me today, you told me you were gonna die
(Father, father, father)
What was I gonna say? Sorry, I don’t wanna lie
(My father, father, father)
You remind me of this old folk song that got passed around
You used to sing it
I bet the songs that you sang inside of that pub
Didn’t just pay for your dinner
Party like an animal
It was a party with the animals

Sink a lot of liquor, kiss a lot of women
How many could you pick up?
I’m one in six
Sittin' pretty in the middle of a litter
Mum said you’re the reason I stutter
One day she got sick again, it hit her
You could have had it all
Instead, she had enough
[Chorus: alt-J]
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor soul
And, Lord, my father's one
