Original Broadway Cast of Violet, Alexander Gemignani, Emerson Steele, Austin Lesch, Sutton Foster - Down the Mountain lyrics

I came to talk to the Preacher
Nobody talks to him unless they
Talk to me first
You're so young i need his blessing
Not to worry
Ma'am we'll get you taken care of in a jiffy

Papa, careful
Easy does it hold on, baby, there we are –
How far? We're halfway down by now
We'll get you taken care of, somehow

I have something to show him
Perhaps you could show me first
God Almighty, show your mercy
God Almighty, please, forgive mGod Almighty
Show your mercy
God Almighty, please, forgive me

There's the river

We can cross it
This might hurt you, be prepared –
I'm scared! I know, but don't you fret
We'll get you taken care of, yet

My child, we must pray for your spirit
Never mind my spirit
All suffering has a purpose
Maybe that's true
But it doesn't make it right!

Don't you fret

God forgive

There's the doctor's –

There's a light on
Hold on, baby, almost there –
Thank heaven for that moon
We'll get you taken care of soon

Hello? Mr preacher? Anybody?
