One For My Baby (Live)

作曲 : Johnny Mercer

作詞 : Harold Arlen

It's quarter to three

There's no one in the place except you and me

So set em' up, Joe

I got a little story you oughtta know

We're drinkin' my friends

To the end of a brief episode

Make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

I got the routine

So I drop another nickel in the machine

I'm feeling so bad

Wish you make the music pretty and sad

Could tell you a lot

But you gotta to be true to your code

So make it one for my baby

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, simply gotta listen to me

Till it's all talked away

Well, that's how it goes

And joe I know you're gettin pretty anxious to close

So thanks for the cheer

I hope you didn't mind

My bending your ear

This torch that I found

Must be drowned

Or it soon might explode

So make it one for my baby

One more for the road

That long ...long road ...
