Hail To the Conquering Hero      - Artist: James Darren as sung on "The Best Of James Darren"   -Rhino Records R2 71664   -peak Billboard position # 97 in 1962   -Words and Music by Gloria Shayne and Howie Greenfield      Hail to the conquerin' hero   There he goes with the girl he stole from me   Hail to the conquerin' hero   Look at him, he's as proud as he can be   He may think he's won the prize   But he doesn't realize   I'm not givin' her up so easily      Hail to the conquerin' hero   I suppose he'll be kissin' her tonight   Three cheers for the conquerin' hero   Marchin' off with my baby just for spite   While he is makin' with romance   I'll be planning an advance   I'm not givin' her up without a fight      For now I may retreat but I won't admit defeat   I'll show that guy I'm just as smart   Yeah, all's fair in love and war so I'll even up the score   I'll decorate him with a broken heart      Down with the conquerin' hero   Pretty soon I'll be ready to attack   I'll conquer the conquerin' hero   When I do, then I'll get my baby back   So he thinks the battle's done   But the battle's just begun   I'll be winnin' her back, just wait and see   And then that conquerin' hero is gonna be me      Transcribed by Robin Hood      These lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned above   and do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheet   music, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets.
