André De Shields, Hadestown Original Broadway Company, Anais Mitchell - Wait for Me (Reprise)

The meanest dog you'll ever meet He ain't the hound dog in the street He bares his 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 drives men mad And a mind to its undoing Wait for me, I'm coming Wait, I'm coming with you Wait for me, I'm coming too I'm coming too Show the way so we can see Show the way the world can 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 can be Show the way so we believe We will follow where you lead We will follow with you Show the way Think they'll make it? I don't know (Show the way) Hades, you let them go (Show the way) I let them try Then how 'bout you and I? (Show the way) Are we gonna try again? (Show the way) It's time for spring We'll try again next fall Wait for me? I will Wait for me, I'm coming Wait, I'm coming with you Wait for me, I'm coming too I'm coming too Who are you? Who do you think you are? Who are you? Who are you to lead her? Who are you to lead them? Who are you to think that you can hold your head up higher than your fellow men? You got a lonesome road to walk It ain't along the railroad track And it ain't along the black-top 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 Wait for me, I'm coming Wait, I'm coming with you Wait for me, I'm coming too Wait for me, I'm coming Wait, I'm coming with you Wait for me, I'm coming Show the way I'm coming wait for me I hear the walls repeating The falling of our feet and It sounds like drumming And we are not alone I hear the rocks and stones Echoing our song I'm coming
