La chanson évoque une maison à La Nouvelle-Orléans, connue pour avoir causé la chute de nombreuses personnes, notamment des femmes. Le narrateur partage son histoire, décrivant comment sa mère était couturière et son compagnon un joueur. Il met en garde sa sœur pour qu'elle évite cet endroit, où la vie semble sombrer dans le vice et le désespoir. Le joueur ne trouve satisfaction que dans l'ivresse et la vie errante, tandis que le narrateur ressent déjà la fin de son propre parcours, se rendant compte qu'il ne pourra échapper à cette spirale destructrice. Cet air empreint de mélancolie illustre les dangers liés à une existence marquée par le jeu et les excès.
