Mmm

Mmhm

Chugga chugga chugga chugga

Chugga chugga chugga chugga

Chugga chugga chugga chugga

Once upon a time there was a railroad line

Don't ask where brother don't ask when

It was the road to Hell it was hard times

It was a world of gods and men

It's an old song

It's an old song

It's an old tale from way back when

It's an old song

It's an old song

And we're gonna sing it again

Gods and men a'ight

We got some gods in the house tonight

See on the road to Hell there was a railroad line

And there were three old women all dressed the same

And they was always singin' in the back of your mind

Everybody meet the Fates

FATES bow

And on the road to Hell there was a railroad line

And a lady steppin' off a train

With a suitcase full of summertime

Persephone by name

PERSEPHONE bows

And if you ride that train

You ride that train

If you ride that train

You ride that train

If you ride that train to the end of the line

Where the sun don't shine and it's always shady

It's there you'll find the king of the mine

Almighty Mr. Hades

HADES bows

We got any other gods

Oh right almost forgot

On the road to Hell there was a railroad station

And a man with feathers on his feet

Who could help you to your final destination

Mr. Hermes that's me

HERMES bows

See someone's got to tell the tale

Whether or not it turns out well

Maybe it will turn out this time

On the road to Hell

On the railroad line

It's a sad song

It's a sad song

It's a sad tale it's a tragedy

It's a sad song

It's a sad song

We're gonna sing it anyway

Now not everyone gets to be a god

And don't forget that times are hard

Hard times in the world of men

Let me introduce you to a few of them

You can tip your hats and your wallets

Brothers and sisters boys and girls

To the hardest working Chorus

In the gods' almighty world

CHORUS bows

And workin' just as hard for you

Let's see what this crew can do

HERMES introduces the band. Band break. COMPANY applauds

A'ight

A'ight

On the road to Hell there was a railroad line

And a poor boy workin' on a song

La la la la la la

His mama was a friend of mine

And this boy was a muse's son

On the railroad line on the road to Hell

You might say the boy was touched

La la la la la la

Cause he was touched by the gods themselves

Give it up for Orpheus

ORPHEUS misses the cue

Orpheus

ORPHEUS bows

There was one more soul on this road

Girl come on in from the cold

On the railroad line on the road to Hell

There was a young girl looking for something to eat

And brother thus begins the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice

It's a love song

It's a love song

It's a tale of a love from long ago

It's a sad song

It's a sad song

But we're gonna sing it even so

It's an old song

It's an old song

It's an old tale from way back when

And we're gonna sing

We're gonna sing

We're gonna sing it again

Again

 

Again
