lirik lagu original cast of hadestown – way down hadestown
[hermes]
on the road to h-ll there was a railroad track
[persephone, spoken]
aw, come on!
[hermes]
and a train coming up from way down below
[persephone, spoken]
that was not six months!
[hermes]
better go and get your suitcase packed
guess it’s time to go
follow that dollar for a long way down
far away from the poorhouse door
either get to h-ll or to hadestown
ain’t no difference anymore!
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
hound dog howl and the whistle blow
train come a-rollin, clickety-clack
n-body knows where that old train goes
those who go they don’t come back
they go
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[persephone]
winter’s nigh and summer’s o’er
hear that high and lonesome sound
of my husband coming for
to bring me home to hadestown
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[persephone]
down there, it’s a bunch of stiffs
brother, i’ll be bored to death
gonna have to import some stuff
just to entertain myself
give me morphine in the tin
give me a crate of the fruit of the vine
takes a lot of medicine
to make it through the wintertime
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[fates]
everybody dresses in clothes so fine
everybody’s pockets are weighted down
everybody’s sipping ambrosia wine
[eurydice]
in a goldmine in hadestown
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[orpheus]
everybody hungry
everybody tired
everybody slaves by the sweat of his brow
the wage is nothing and the work is hard
it’s a graveyard in hadestown
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[fates]
every little penny in the wishing well
every little nickel on the drum
[persephone]
on the drum!
[fates]
all them shiny little heads and tails
where do you think they come from?
they come from
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[orpheus]
mr. hades is a mean old boss
[hermes]
with a silver whistle and a golden scale
[fates]
an eye for an eye!
[hermes]
and he weighs the cost
[fates]
a lie for a lie!
[hermes]
and your soul for sale
[fates]
sold!
[orpheus]
to the king on the chromium throne
[fates]
thrown!
[orpheus]
to the bottom of a sing sing cell
[hermes]
where the little wheel squeals and the big wheel groans
[orpheus]
and you better forget about your wishing well
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
[hermes, spoken]
and on the road to h-ll there was a railroad car
and the car door opened and a man stepped out
everybody looked and everybody saw
it was the same man they’d been singing about
[persephone, spoken]
you’re early!
[hades, spoken]
i missed you
[fates]
mr. hades is a mighty king
must be making some mighty big deals
seems like he owns everything
[eurydice]
kind of makes you wonder how it feels
[hermes]
all aboard…
one, two
a-one, two, three, four
[company]
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
way down hadestown
way down under the ground
way down under the ground
way down under the ground
