Lyrics of Hercules by Elton John
verse
Ooh, I got a busted wing and a hornet sting
Like an out of tune guitar
Ooh, she got Hercules on her side
And Diana in her eyes
verse
Some men like the Chinese life
Some men kneel and pray
Ooh, well, I like women and I like wine
And I've always liked it that way
Always liked it that way
chorus
I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving, kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
verse
Oh, and it hurts like hell to see my gal
Messing with a muscle boy
No superman gonna ruin my plans
Playing with my toys
verse
Rich man sweating in a sauna bath
Poor boy scrubbing in a tub
Me, I stay gritty up to my ears
Washing in a bucket of mud
Washing in a bucket of mud
chorus
I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving, kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
chorus
I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving, kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
outro
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
Writer(s): Bernie Taupin, Elton John
