Were gonna have a supper
Well eat some food thats rare
And at the head of the table
Well place brother Henrys chair
Invite all the local big dogs
Well laugh and talk and eat
But well save the bones for Henry Jones
Cause Henry dont eat no meat
Today Ill go to market
Buy up a lotta fish
Well, that will thrill brother Henry
Cause fish is his special dish
Get a large can of molasses
Have something really sweet
But well save the bones for Henry Jones
Cause Henry dont eat no meat
Henry is not a drinker
He rarely takes a nip
He dont need a napkin
Cause the things he eats dont drip blip!
One day we had a banquet
It really was a bake
They started off with short ribs
Then finished off with steak
But when the feast was over
Brother Henry just kept his seat
And we served the bones to Henry Jones
Cause Henry dont eat no meat
Our banquet was most proper
Right down to demitasse
From soup to lox and bagels
And pheasant under glass class!
We thought the chops were mellow
He said his chops were beat reet!
We served the bones to Henry Jones
Cause Henry dont eat no meat
Hes an egg man
Henry dont eat no meat
He loves a pullet
Henry dont eat no meat
A vegetarian
Henry?
Coming mother!
Soups on
