Young Herc was mortal now

But since he did not drink the last drop

He still retained his godlike strength

So thank his lucky star



But Zeus and Hera wept

Because their son could never come home

They'd have to watch their precious baby

Grow up from afar



Though Hades horrid plan

Was hatched before Herc cut his first tooth

The boy grew stronger ev'ry day and

That's the gospel truth
