One For My Baby |
It’s quarter to three |
There’s no one in the place |
Accept you and me |
So set 'em up, Joe |
I’ve got a little story |
You oughtta know |
We’re drinking, my friend |
To the end of a brief episode |
Make it one for my baby |
And one more for the road |
I’ve got the routine |
So drop another nickel in the machine |
I’m feeling so bad |
I wish you’d make the music dreamy and sad |
Could tell you a lot |
But you’ve gotta to be true to your coat |
Make it one for my baby |
And one more for the road |
You’d never know it |
But buddy, I’m a kind of poet |
And I’ve got a lot of things to say |
And when I’m gloomy |
You simply gotta listen to me |
Until it’s talked away |
Well that’s how it goes |
And Joe, I know you’re |
Gettin' anxious to close |
So thanks for the cheer |
I hope you didn’t mind |
My bending your ear |
But this torch that I found |
Must be drowned |
Or it soon may explode |
Make it one for my baby |
And one more for the road |
That long, long road |
