One for My Baby (And One More for the Road)

Quarter to three there's no one in the place

Except you and me

So set 'em up, Joe got a little story

I think you should know

We're drinkin', my friend, to the end

Of a sweet episode

Make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

Got the routine so drop another nickel

In the machine

Oh, gee, I'm feelin' so bad wish you'd make the music

So dreamy and sad

You could tell me a lot but it's not

In a gentleman's code

Let's make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

You may not know it but buddy you're a kind of poet

And you've had a lot of things to say

And when I'm gloomy you always listen to me

Until it's talked away

Well, that's how it goes

And John I know you're getting anxious to close

So, thanks for the cheer

I hope you didn't mind me bending your ear

For all of the years, for the laughs, for the tears

For the class that you showed

Make it one for my baby and one more for the road

That long long road
