Wait for Me |
How to get to Hadestown |
You’ll have to take the long way down |
Through the underground, under cover of night |
Laying low, staying out of sight |
Ain’t no compass, brother, there ain’t no map |
Just a telephone wire and the railroad track |
Keep on walking and you don’t look back |
'Til you get to the bottomland |
Wait for me, I’m coming |
Wait, I’m coming with you |
Wait for me, I’m coming too |
I’m coming too |
River Styx is high and wide |
Cinderbricks and razorwire |
Walls of iron and concrete |
Hound dogs howling round the gate |
Them 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 |
You best be glad you got 'em |
Wait for me, I’m coming |
Wait, I’m coming with you |
Wait for me, I’m coming too |
I’m coming too |
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 will 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 coming |
Wait, I’m coming with you |
Wait for me, I’m coming too |
I’m coming |
Wait, wait, wait, wait |
