Way Down Hadestown Original Cast of Hadestown (Ft. Amber Gray, Chris Sullivan, Damon Daunno, Jessie Shelton, Lulu Fall, Nabiyah Be, Patrick Page & Shaina Taub)

[HERMES]
On the road to hell there was a railroad track

[PERSEPHONE, spoken]
Aw, come on!

[HERMES]
And a train coming up from way down below

[PERSEPHONE, spoken]
That was not six months!

[HERMES]
Better go and get your suitcase packed
Guess it's time to go
Follow that dollar for a long way down
Far away from the poorhouse door
Either get to hell or to Hadestown
Ain’t no difference anymore!
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground
Hound dog howl and the whistle blow
Train come a-rollin, clickety-clack
Nobody knows where that old train goes
Those who go they don’t come back
They go
