One For My Baby (and One More For The Road) Lyrics

Linda Eder One For My Baby (and One More For The Road)

It's quarter to three
There's no one in the place
Except you and me
So set 'em up Joe
I've got a little story
You oughta know

Drinkin' my friend to the end
Of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

I got the routine
So drop another nickel
In the machine
I'm feelin' so bad
I wish you'd make the music
Dreamy and sad

Could tell you a lot
But you've got to be true to your code
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 lotta things to say
And when I'm gloomy
You gotta listen to me
Until it's talked away

Well that's how it goes
And Joe I know you're getting
Anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind
My bending your ear

This torch that I've found
Must be drowned
Or it soon will explode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
That long, long road, see ya Frank
