Hadestown (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Wait for Me (Reprise)
How to get to Haydes town
You have to take the long way down
Through the underground, under the cover of night
Layin' low, stayin' out of site
Ain't no compass brother, ain't no map
Just the telephone wire and a railroad track
Keep on walkin' and don't look back
Til you get to the bottom line
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
River stakes as high and wide
Send the bricks and raise your while
Walls of iron and concrete, hound all talent round the gate
Those dogs lay down and play dead
If you gat the bones, if you gat the bread
But if all you got is your own two legs
Just be glad you gat them
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
Who are you?
Where do you think you're goin'?
Who are you?
Why are you all alone?
Who do you think you are?
Who are you to think that you can walk a road that no one ever walked before?
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la (laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la)
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la (laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la)
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la
You're on the line, you're on the run
Don't give your name, you don't gat one
And don't look no one in the eye
That town that's tryna suck you dry
They'll suck your brain, they'll suck your breath
They'll cut the heart right out your chest
They'll thrust you up in your song in best
And stuff your mouth with sand
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
I'm coming wait for me (wait)
I hear the walls repeating (wait)
The falling of our feet and
It sounds like drumming (wait)
And I am not alone (wait)
I hear the rocks and stones (wait)
Echoing my song
I'm coming
You have to take the long way down
Through the underground, under the cover of night
Layin' low, stayin' out of site
Ain't no compass brother, ain't no map
Just the telephone wire and a railroad track
Keep on walkin' and don't look back
Til you get to the bottom line
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
River stakes as high and wide
Send the bricks and raise your while
Walls of iron and concrete, hound all talent round the gate
Those dogs lay down and play dead
If you gat the bones, if you gat the bread
But if all you got is your own two legs
Just be glad you gat them
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
Who are you?
Where do you think you're goin'?
Who are you?
Why are you all alone?
Who do you think you are?
Who are you to think that you can walk a road that no one ever walked before?
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la (laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la)
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la (laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la)
Laaa, la-la-la-la-la-la
You're on the line, you're on the run
Don't give your name, you don't gat one
And don't look no one in the eye
That town that's tryna suck you dry
They'll suck your brain, they'll suck your breath
They'll cut the heart right out your chest
They'll thrust you up in your song in best
And stuff your mouth with sand
Wait for me, I'm comin'
Wait, I'm comin' with you
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
I'm comin' too
I'm coming wait for me (wait)
I hear the walls repeating (wait)
The falling of our feet and
It sounds like drumming (wait)
And I am not alone (wait)
I hear the rocks and stones (wait)
Echoing my song
I'm coming
