Waitin’ for the Light to Shine (Reprise) (1985 Original Broadway Cast)
[Huckleberry Finn]
ALRIGHT, I'LL GO TO HELL!!! I'll take up wickedness again, which is my line, bein' brought up to it! And for a starter, I'll steal Jim out of slavery again - and if I can think of something worse, I'll do that, too! 'Cause as long as I'm in, and in for good, I might as well go whole hog!!!

I have lived an undirected life
A cloudy way I know
The only way I knew
So the things I've done

[Huck and Slaves]
In fact, each and every one
Are the way that I was taught to run

I am waitin' for the light to shine
I'm waitin' for the light to shine
I have lived in the darkness for so long
I am waitin' for the light to shine

Far beyond horizons I have seen
Beyond thе things I've been
Beyond the drеams I dream
Are the things I've done
In fact, each and every one
Are the way that I was taught to run

I am waitin' for the light to shine
I'm waitin' for the light to shine
I have lived in the darkness for so long
I am waitin'
[Slave #1]
I am waitin'

[Slave #2]
Everybody here is waitin'

[Slave #3]
Lord, I'm

[Slaves]
Waitin'

[Slave #3]
For you
Truly
Yes, I'm

[Huck and Slaves]
I am waitin' for the light to shine

I am waitin' for the light to shine
I'm waitin' for the light to shine
I have lived in the darkness for so long
I am waitin' for the light
Waitin' for the light
I am waitin' for the light to shine
