[00:00.023] [HERMES, spoken]
[00:00.063] How to get to Hadestown:
[00:02.307] You have to take the long way down
[00:05.055] Through the underground, under cover of night
[00:07.851] Layin' low, stayin' out of sight
[00:10.373] Ain't no compass, brother, ain't no map
[00:13.209] Just a telephone wire and a railroad track
[00:15.850] Keep on walkin' and don't look back
[00:18.684] 'Til you get to the bottomland
[00:20.162]
[00:20.328] [ORPHEUS]
[00:20.485] Wait for me, I'm comin'
[00:25.996] Wait, I'm comin' with you
[00:31.605] Wait for me, I'm comin' too
[00:36.602] I'm coming too
[00:38.159]
[00:38.353] [HERMES, spoken]
[00:38.577] The River Styx is high and wide
[00:40.638] Cinder bricks and razor wire
[00:43.061] Walls of iron and concrete
[00:45.825] Hound dogs howling 'round the gate
[00:48.209] Those dogs'll lay down and play dead
[00:50.876] If you got the bones, if you got the bread
[00:53.546] But if all you got is your own two legs
[00:56.479] Just be glad you got 'em
[00:58.544]
[00:58.702] [ORPHEUS and FATES]
[00:58.851] Wait for me, I'm comin'
[01:03.930] Wait, I'm comin' with you
[01:09.421] Wait for me, I'm comin' too
[01:14.616] I'm coming too
[01:15.774]
[01:15.941] [FATES]
[01:16.120] Who are you?
[01:18.596]
[01:18.768] [FATE]

[01:22.897] Who are you?
[01:24.045]
[01:24.221] [FATE]
[01:24.395] Why are you all alone?
[01:27.593]
[01:27.740] [FATES]
[01:27.898] Who do you-
[01:30.505]
[01:30.677] [FATE]
[01:30.840] -Think you are?
[01:31.480]
[01:31.651] [FATES]
[01:31.783] Who are you-
[01:32.335]
[01:32.508] [FATE]
[01:32.646] -To think that you can walk a road that no one ever walked before?
[01:37.059]
[01:37.213] [ORPHEUS]
[01:37.379] La la la la la la

[02:07.484]
[02:07.846] [HERMES]
[02:08.193] You're on the lam, you’re on the run
[02:11.740] Don't give your name, you don't have one
[02:14.531] And don't look no one in the eye
[02:17.456] That town'll try to suck you dry
[02:19.784] They'll suck your brain, they'll suck your breath
[02:22.738] They'll pluck the heart right out your chest
[02:25.309] They'll truss you up in your Sunday best
[02:27.888] And stuff your mouth with cotton
[02:30.516]
[02:30.986] [ORPHEUS and COMPANY]

[02:53.317] The falling of my feet and
