One For My Baby

One for My Baby - Dion

It's quarter to three

No one in the place except you and me

So set 'em up Joe

I've got a little story I'd like to 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 got the routine

So drop another nickel in the machine

I'm feeling so bad

You'd make the music dreamy and sad

I could tell you a lot

But you've got to be true to your code

So make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

You'd never know it

But Joe I'm a kind of poet

I've got a lot of things to say

And when I'm gloomy

You simply listen to me

Until it's all talked away

That's how it goes

Joe I know you're getting anxious to close

So thanks for the cheer

I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear

But this torch that I've found

It's gonna be drowned or it soon might explode

Make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

One for my baby

And one more for the road
