The Gospel Truth III
ALAN MENKEN, DAVID JOEL ZIPPEL
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 every day and
And that's the gospel truth
The gospel truth
