Hadestown - When the Chips are Down Lyrics |
2016 stage musical adaptation of a folk opera by Anaïs Mitchell HADESTOWN the Musical - When the Chips are Down Lyrics
FATES Life ain’t easy, life ain’t fair A girl’s gotta fight for a rightful share What you gonna do when the chips are down Now that the chips are down What you gonna do when the chips are down Now that the chips are down Help yourself, to hell with the rest Even the one who loves you best What you gonna do when the chips are down Now that the chips are down What you gonna do when the chips are down Now that the chips are down
EURYDICE Oh my aching heart
FATES What you gonna do when the chips are down? Now that the chips are down Take if you can, give if you must Ain’t nobody but yourself to trust What you gonna do when the chips are down? Now that the chips are down What you gonna do when the chips are down? Now that the chips are down Aim for the heart, shoot to kill If you don’t do it then the other one will What you gonna do when the chips are down? Now that the chips are down What you gonna do when the chips are down? Now that the chips are down And the first shall be first And the last shall be last Cast your eyes to heaven You get a knife in the back Nobody’s righteous Nobody’s proud Nobody’s innocent Now that the chips are down Now that the Now that the Now that the Now that the Now that the chips are down
