We’re pleased to present you with not one, but two Bardcore covers! Algal played every instrument you hear, and I provided the vocals. You’ll find the other cover, Dust in the Wind, on Algal’s channel in the link below.

** LYRICS **
There is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I’m one

Mother was a tailor
She sewed my chaperon
My father was a gambling man
Down, in Orléans

The only thing a gambler requires
Is a satchel and his luck
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s in his cups

Oh mothers tell thy children
Not to do what I have done
I spent my life in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

I’ve one foot in the stirrup
The other on the ground
I shall return to Orléans
To be lost, and never found

There is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I’m one
