"The House of The Raising Sun" done by the Animals is surely one of the most popular songs ever written about New Orleans. Its been around for years. I know all of you have heard it. Not too long ago I heard a song that sounds just like it but the words were changed. I only heard the first verse. So I began to add other words to it. I don't want to take credit for it being completely my idea, but I wanted to contribute to it. Remember these words/verses go to the same music as "The House of The Raising Sun."
There is a team in New Orleans,
That seldom win a game,
And I don't want to embarrass them,
So I wont tell you their name.
The owner sells a lot of cars you know,
Thru out the teams land,
But the only time he is satisfied,
Is when he dances under his umbrella.
The fans they wear paper bags on their heads,
and shout things thru out the croud,
Like "Who dat, Who dat, you say,"
Gonna beat my team today.
Now fans tell your children,
Not to follow this team no more,
They look very good on the field you know,
But they'll never make the Super Bowl.
One foots on my tailgate,
The other is on Poydras,
I'm going in the dome today,
To see who dat,who dat, gonna beat my team today.
Ahhhhh, There is a team in New Orleans,
That seldom win a game,
And I don't want to embaress them,
So I wont tell you their name.
Contribute if you like. And don't get me wrong, I will die a S_ _ _ _ S fan. And I have never worn a paper bag on my face, but I usually have been drinking when I watch a game on TV.
Hope you like it.

Peter, I hate to burst your raising bubble, but the name of the song is "House of the RISING Son". But, I like the new words you gave the tune!
ReplyDeleteLove ya,

Yes I know about RAISING and RISING. My darling daughter brought it to my attention yesterday. But be advised I still don't need spell check. I didn't spell the word wrong I just used the wrong word. Big difference. What I need is a program to let me know when I'm using the wrong word for what I want to say. Ya'll surposed to understand what I want to say not what you read. Looks like it's ya'll problem and mistake.(LOL)
ReplyDeleteI'm just happy ya'll enjoyed the new lyrics. I s that spelled right??
Later,
Peter
