Letra
On the Road to Hell there was a railroad track
Hm
Oh, come on
There was a train comin' up from way down below
Hm
That was not six months
Better go and get your suitcase packed
Guess it's time to go
She's gonna ride that train
Ride that train
She's gonna ride that train
Ride that train
She's gonna ride that train 'til the end of the line
Hm
'Cause the King of the Mine is a-coming to call
Hm
Did you ever wonder what it's like on the underside?
Way down under
On the yonder side?
Way down yonder
On the other side of his wall
Follow that dollar for a long way down
Far away from the poorhouse door
You either get to hell or to Hadestown
Ain't no difference anymore
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
Hound dog howls and the whistle blow
Train come rollin, clickety-clack
Everybody tryin' to get a ticket to go
But those who go they don't come back
They goin'
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
[Instrumental]
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
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
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 a tin
Give me a crate of the fruit of the vine
Takes a lot of medicine
To make it through the wintertime
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
Every little penny in the wishing well
Every little nickel on the drum
All them shiny little heads and tails
Where do you think they come from?
They come from-
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
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
[Instrumental]
Mr. 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
[Instrumental]
On the Road to Hell, there was a railroad car
Hm
And the car door opened and a man stepped out
Hm
Everybody looked and everybody saw
It was the same man they'd been singin' about
You're early
I missed you
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
All aboard
A-one, a-two
A-one, two, three, four
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
