[Verse 1]
There is a house in New Berlin
They call it "House of the Setting Sun"
It was the ruin of many good boys
And by me, my God, I suffered hardship
[Verse 2]
If I had listened to my leader
I'd be home today
Was young and foolish, was a poor lad
Led astray and mean
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Tell my little sister
That she should not run after me
Shall avoid the house in New Berlin
The house they call Setting Sun
[Verse 4]
My mother was a seamstress
Sold this uniform
My sweetheart is a drinker
My God, she likes to drink in New Berlin
[Verse 5]
I'm going back to New Berlin
A driven by my need
The rest of my days I stay there
There by the house of the Setting Sun
