[ Featuring Hadestown Original West End Cast ]
The meanest dog you'll ever meet,
He ain't the hound dog in the street*
He bares some teeth and tears some skin
But brother, that's the worst of him
The dog you really got to dread
Is the one that howls inside your head
It's him whose howling makes men mad
And drives a mind to its undoing
Orpheus and Eurydice:
Wait for me, I'm coming
Wait I'm coming with with you
Wait for me, I'm coming too
I'm coming too
Workers:
Show the way so we can see
Show the way the world could be
If you can do it so can she
If she can do it so can we
Show the way
Show the way the world could be(Show)
Show the way so we believe(Show the way)
We will follow where you lead
We will follow if you
Show the way

Hermes:
You've got a lonesome road to walk
And it ain't along the railroad track
And it ain't along the blacktop tar
You've walked a hundred times before
I'll tell you where the real road lies
Between your ears, behind your eyes
That is the path to paradise
Likewise the road to ruin
