AELLA CHOIR: The Ballad of the Witches’ Road (Cover)

Details

Description

Aella Choir performs our cover of "The Ballad of the Witches’ Road" by Kristen Anderson-Lopez & Robert Lopez at our concert "Something Wicked This Way Comes" on October 27, 2024. Given the concert theme—and how many Marvel fans sing in Aella—we couldn’t resist coming up with our own (mostly) acapella version of this song.

The original was composed for the television series "Agatha All Along" and is available here: https://youtu.be/VnjYeJ5blxo?feature=shared.

LYRICS
Seekest thou the road to all that’s foul and fair
Gather sisters fire, water, earth and air
Darkest hour, wake thy power earthly and divine
Burn and brew with coven true and glory shall be thine
Down, down, down the road, down the Witches’ Road ...
Circle sewn with fate, unlock thy hidden gate

Marching ever forward ‘neath the wooded shrine
I stray not from the path, I hold Death’s hand in mine
Primal night giveth sight, familiar by thy side
If one be gone, we carry on, spirit as our guide
Down, down, down the road, down the Witches’ Road ...
Blood and tears and bone, Maiden, Mother, Crone

The road is wild and wicked winding through the wood
Whеre all that’s wrong is right and all that’s bad is good
Through many miles of tricks and trials we’ll wander high and low
Tame your fears, a door appears, the time has come to go
Down, down, down the road, down the Witches’ Road ...
Follow me, my friend, to glory at the end
