Save the Bones for Henry Jones - Johnny Mercer (约翰尼·默瑟)/Nat King Cole Trio/The Les Brown Orchestra[00:00:00]
We'll go to have a supper[00:00:12]
We'll eat some food that's rare[00:00:16]
And that the head of the table[00:00:19]
We'll place brother Henry's chair[00:00:22]
Invite all the local big dogs[00:00:25]
We'll laugh and talk and eat[00:00:29]
But we'll save the bones for Henry Jones[00:00:32]
Cause Henry don't eat no meat[00:00:35]
Today I'll go to market[00:00:39]
Buy up a lotta fish[00:00:43]
Well that will thrill brother Henry[00:00:45]
Cause fish is his fresh dish[00:00:49]
Get a large can of molasses[00:00:52]
Have something really sweet[00:00:55]
But we'll save the bones for Henry Jones[00:00:59]
Cause Henry don't eat no meat[00:01:02]
Henry is not a drinker[00:01:06]
He really takes a nip[00:01:09]
He don't need no napkings[00:01:12]
Cause the things he eats don't drip blip[00:01:15]
One day we had a banquet[00:01:19]
It really was a bake[00:01:23]
They started off with short ribs[00:01:25]
Then finished off with steak[00:01:29]
But when the feast was over[00:01:32]
Brother Henry just kept his seat[00:01:35]
And we served the bones to Henry Jones[00:01:39]
Cause Henry don't eat no meat[00:01:42]
I banquet what most proper[00:01:58]
Right down to demitasse[00:02:02]
From soup to lox and bagels[00:02:05]
And pheasant under glass glass[00:02:08]
We thought the chops were mellow[00:02:12]
He said his chops were beat[00:02:15]
We'll served the bones to Henry Jones[00:02:18]
Cause Henry don't eat no meat[00:02:22]
He's an egg man[00:02:24]
Henry don't eat no meat[00:02:25]
He loves a pullet[00:02:28]
Henry don't eat no meat[00:02:29]
A vegetarian[00:02:31]
