Ooh, I got a busted wing and a hornet sting
Like an out-of-tune guitar
Ooh, she got a-Hercules on her side
And Diana in her eyes
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
Doo-wop, shoo-wop
Doo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop
Well, I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough-man routine up her sleeves
Livin' and a-lovin', kissin' and a-hugging
Living and a-loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
Oh, but it hurts like hell to see my girl
Messing with a muscle boy
No Superman's gonna ruin my plans
Playing with my toys
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
Doo-wop, shoo-wop
Doo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop
I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough-man routine up her sleeves
Livin' and a-lovin', kissin' and a-huggin'
Living and a-loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
Doo-wop, shoo-wop
Doo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop, shoo-wop
But I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough-man routine up her sleeves
Livin' and a-lovin', kissin' and a-huggin'
Living and a-loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
Oh, yeah!
