Save The Bones For Henry Jones (remastered) by Johnny Mercer
We're gonna have a supper
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
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 we'll save the bones for Henry Jones
‘Cause Henry don't eat no meat
Henry is not a drinker
He rarely takes a nip
He don't need a napkin
‘Cause the things he eats don't drip – blip!
One day we had a banquet
