Karaoké Wait for Me Hadestown (musical)

How to get to Hadestown

You have to take the long way down

Through the underground under cover of night

Layin' low, stayin' out of sight

Ain't no compass, brother ain't no map just a telephone wire and a railroad track

Keep on walkin' and don't look back 'till you get to the bottomland

Wait for me

I'm comin'

Wait, I'm comin' with you

Wait for me

I'm comin' too

I'm comin' too

River Styx is high and wide cinder bricks and razor wire

Walls of iron and concrete hound dogs howlin' 'round the gate

Those dogs'll lay down and play dead if you got the bones if you got the bread

But if all you got is your own two legs just be glad you got 'em

Wait for me

I'm comin'

Wait for me

I'm comin'

Wait, I'm comin' with you

Wait, I'm comin' with you

Wait for me

I'm comin' too

Wait for me

I'm comin' too

I'm comin' too

I'm comin' too

Who are you

Where do you think you're going

Who are you

Why are you all alone

Who do you think you are to think that you can walk a road that no one ever walked before

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

La

You're on the lam you're on the run

Don't give your name you don't have one

And don't look no one in the eye that town'll try to suck you dry

They'll suck your brain they'll suck your breath

They'll pluck the heart right out your chest

They'll truss you up in your Sunday best and stuff your mouth with cotton

Wait for me

I'm comin'

Wait for me

I'm comin'

Wait, I'm comin' with you

Wait, I'm comin' with you

Wait for me

Wait for me

I'm comin' too

I'm comin' too

I'm coming wait for me

I hear the walls repeating

The falling of my feet and it sounds like drumming

It sounds like drumming

And I am not alone

I hear the rocks and stones echoing my song

I'm comin'

I'm comin'
