Low, keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

Keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head

Oh, you gotta keep your head --

PERSEPHONE:In the coldest time of year,

Why is it so hot down here?

Hotter than a crucible

It ain't right and it ain't natural

HADES:Lover, you were gone so long

Lover, I was lonesome

So I built a foundry

In the ground beneath your feet

Here, I fashioned things of steel

Oil drums and automobiles

Then I kept that furnace fed

With the fossils of the dead

Lover, when you feel that fire,

Think of it as my desire

Think of it as my desire for you!

ORPHEUS:I'll sing a song of a love gone wrong

HERMES:A love gone wrong, all right!

Every year they have this fight!

ORPHEUS:La la la la la la la…

Low, keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

Keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head-

EURYDICE:Lover, while you sing your song

Winter is a-comin' on

See, I'm stacking firewood

See, I'm putting by some food

Orpheus, all the pretty songs you sing

Ain't gonna shelter us

From the wind, the wind, the wind

PERSEPHONE:In the darkest time of year,

Why is it so bright down here?

Brighter than a carnival

It ain't right and it ain't natural

HADES:Lover, you were gone so long

Lover, I was lonesome

So I laid a power grid

In the ground on which you stood

And wasn't it electrifying

When I made the neon shine!

Silver screen, cathode ray

Brighter than the light of day

Lover, when you see that glare

Think of it as my despair

Think of it as my despair for you!

ORPHEUS:I'll sing a song of a love gone wrong

HERMES:When the gods are having a fight,

Everybody else better hold on tight!

ORPHEUS:La la la la la la la…

Low, keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

Keep your head, keep your head low

Oh, you gotta keep your head low

If you wanna keep your head-

EURYDICE:While my lover sings his song

Everything I've saved is gone

Nothing left upon the shelf

Fire ain't gonna light itself

Now I see all the pretty songs he sings

Ain't gonna harbor me

From the wind, the wind, the wind

Oooh...

PERSEPHONE:Every year, it's getting worse

Hadestown, hell on Earth!

Did you think I'd be impressed

With this neon necropolis?

I recall there was a time

We were happy, you and I

In the garden where we met

Nothing was between us yet

Back before your factories

Before your electricity

Back before you built the wall

It ain't right and it ain't natural

HADES:Lover, everything I do

I do it for the love of you

If you don't even want my love,

I'll give it to someone who does

Someone grateful for their fate

Someone who appreciates

The comforts of a gilded cage

And doesn't try to fly away

The moment Mother Nature calls

Someone who can love these walls

That hold her close and keep her safe

And think of them as my embrace

ORPHEUS:Singing: la la la la la la la...

Low, keep your head, keep your head low

EURYDICE:Shelter us

HADES:Think of them as my embrace

ORPHEUS:La la la la la la la...

Low, keep your head, keep your head-

EURYDICE:Harbor me

HADES:Think of them as my embrace

Of you
