Hen-er-ry's, Hen-er-ry's. You must know Hen-er-ry's cat.

Hen-er-ry's, Hen-er-ry's. You must know Hen-er-ry's cat.

You must have seen the movie. You must have read the book.

He's a mellow, yellow feline. So take a second look.

He knows everything about nothing and not too much about that,

So if you know someone who knows what he knows,

Then you must know Hen-er-ry's cat.

Then you must know Hen-er-ry's cat.
