One for My Baby

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 ought to know

We're drinkin'

My friend

To the end of a brief episode

Just make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

I see you got the routine

So drop another nickel over in the machine

Right now I'm feeling so bad

Try to make the music dreamy and sad

Could tell you a lot

But you've got to be true to your code

Just make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

I know that

You may not know it

But

I'm a kind of poet

And I got a lot of things I want to say

And when I'm gloomy

You just gotta listen to me

Until it's all talked away

Well

That's how it goes

And joe

I know you're gettin' anxious to close

May I say thanks for the cheer

And thank you joe for letting me bendin' your ear

And all this torch that I've got

Must burn out my eye soon to explode

Just make it one for my baby

Another little teast for the road

A long road

Some road
