• Way Down Hadestown

HERMES
Follow that dollar for a long way down / Far away from the poorhouse door
You either get to hell or to Hadestown / There ain’t no difference anymore, anymore
Way down Hadestown / Way down under the ground
Hound dog howl and the whistle blow / Train come a-rollin’ clickety-clack
Nobody knows where that old train goes / Those who go they don’t come back
They go way down Hadestown / Way down under the ground
PERSEPHONE
Winter’s nigh and summer’s o’er / I hear that high and lonesome sound
Of my husband coming for / To bring me home to Hadestown
Way down, Hadestown / Way down under the ground
EURYDICE
Everybody dresses in clothes so fine / Everybody’s pockets are weighted down
Everybody sipping ambrosia wine / In a goldmine in Hadestown
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
Way down Hadestown / Way down under the ground
FATES
Every little penny in the wishing well / Every little nickel on the drum, on the drum
All them shiny little heads and tails / Where do you think they come from?
They come from Hadestown, way down / Way down under the ground
ORPHEUS & HERMES
Mister Hades is a mean old boss / With a silver whistle and a golden scale
An eye for an eye! And he weighs the cost / A lie for a lie! And your soul for sale
Sold! To the king on the chromium throne / Thrown! To the bottom of a sing-sing cell
Where the little wheel squeal and the big wheel groan / And you better forget about your wishing well
Way down Hadestown / Way down under the ground
EURYDICE
Mr. Hades is a mighty king / Must be making some mighty big deals
Seems like he owns everything / Kind of makes you wonder how it feels
Way down Hadestown / Way down under the ground x 2
Way down under the ground x 2
