Tonight we'll have a party
We'll eat some food that's rare
And at the head of the table
We'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 up a lotta fish
Well, that will thrill brother Henry
'Cause fish is his special dish
Get a large can of molasses
Have something sweet to eat
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 no 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 any they 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 don't eat no meat

Our dinner was most proper
Right down to demitasse
From soup to lox and bagels
And pheasant under glass
We thought the chops were mellow
And I said his chops were beat
And we served the bones to Henry Jones
'Cause Henry don't eat no meat
He's an egg man (Henry don't eat no meat)
He loves his fish (Henry don't eat no meat)
