"Save The Bones For Henry Jones" lyrics

Tonight we'll have a party
We'll eat some food that's rare
And at the head of the table
I'll place brother Henry's chair
Invite all the local big dogs
We'll laugh and talk and eat

But we'll save the bones for Henry Jones
'Cause Henry don't eat no meat

Today I'll go to market
And buy a lot of fish
That will thrill brother Henry
'Cause fish is his special dish
Get a large can of molasses
So we'll have something sweet

But we'll save the bones for Henry Jones
'Cause Henry don't eat no meat

Henry don't like gravy
He don't dunk or dip
He don't need a napkins
'Cause the things he eats don't drip
Blip

One day we had a banquet
It really was a bake
They started off with short ribs
Then they finished up with steak
But when the feast was over
Brother Henry just kept his seat

And we served the bones to Henry Jones
'Cause Henry don't eat no meat

Our banquet was most proper
Right down to demitasse
From soup to lox and bagels
And pheasant under glass
We thought the chops were mellow
He said his chops were beat

And we served the bones to Henry Jones
'Cause Henry don't eat no meat

He shouts for bean sprouts
Henry don't eat no meat
Don't you give him bacon
Henry don't eat no meat
Badly mistaken
Henry don't eat no meat
He's been on fish since '66
Henry don't eat no meat
And he gets his kicks in celery sticks
Henry don't eat no meat
Sure can agree when he eat that cheese
Henry don't eat no meat
I'm in the mood for seafood
Henry don't eat no meat
But he acts like he won't see food
Henry
Get you all fresh patty, special sauce, lettuce, pickles, onion on a sesame seed bun
