LYRICS:

FATE:
The deal is signed?

EURYDICE:
Yes

FATE:
About time
Get on the line

EURYDICE:
I did what I had to do

FATE:
That's what they did, too

HERMES:
Now in Hadestown, there were a lot of souls

WORKERS:
Low, keep your head, keep your head

HERMES:
Working on the wall with all their might

WORKERS:
Oh, you gotta keep your head

HERMES:
You see, they kept their heads down low

WORKERS:
If you wanna keep your head

HERMES:
You couldn't quite see their faces right
But you could hear them singing:

WORKERS:
Low, keep your head, keep your head

HERMES:
Swinging their hammers in the cold, hard ground
You can hear the sound of the pickax ringin'

WORKERS:
If you wanna keep your head

HERMES:
And they called it...

COMPANY:
“Freedom”

EURYDICE:
I’m Eurydice
Doesn't anybody hear me?

THE FATES:
They can hear
But they don't care
No one has a name down here

Mr. Hades set you free
To work yourself into the ground
Free to spend eternity
In the factory
And the warehouse
Where the whistles scream
And the foreman shouts
And you're punchin' in
And punchin' in
And punchin' in
And you can't punch out!

THE FATES and WORKERS:
And you're way down Hadestown
(Oh, keep your head, keep your head low)
Way down Hadestown
(Oh, you gotta keep your head low)
Way down Hadestown
(If you wanna keep your head)
Way down under the ground!
(Keep your head low)

EURYDICE:
Why won't anybody look at me?

THE FATES:
They can look
But they don't see
You see, it's easier that way
Your eyes will look like that someday

Down in the river of oblivion
You kissed your little life goodbye
And Hades laid his hands on you
And gave you everlasting life!
And everlasting overtime
In the mine, the mill, and the machinery
Your place on the assembly line
Replaces all your memories

THE FATES and WORKERS:
Way down Hadestown
(Oh, keep your head, keep your head low)
Way down Hadestown
(Oh, you gotta keep your head low)
Way down Hadestown
(If you wanna keep your head)
Way down under the ground!
(Keep your head low)

EURYDICE:
What do you mean I'll look like that?

THE FATES:
That's what it looks like to forget

EURYDICE:
Forget what?

THE FATES:
Who you are and everything that came before

EURYDICE:
I have to go

THE FATES
Go where?

EURYDICE:
Go back!

THE FATES:
Oh, and where is that?
So what was your name again?
You've already forgot it

HERMES:
You see, it’s like I said before:
A lot can happen behind closed doors
Eurydice was a hungry young girl, but she wasn’t hungry anymore
What she was instead, was dead
Dead to the world, anyway
You see, she went behind those doors
And signed her life away

THE FATES:
Saw that wheel up in the sky
Heard the big bell tolling
A lot of souls have gotta die
To keep the Rust Belt rollin'
A lot of spirits gotta break
To make the underworld go 'round

THE FATES and COMPANY:
Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground!
