One For My Baby

One For My Baby - Marlene Dietrich/Burt Bacharach

It's quarter to three

There's no one in the place

Except you and me

So set them up Joe

I've got a little story

You ought a know

We're drinking my friend

To the end of a brief episode

So make it one for my baby

One more for the road

I 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 is not

In a gentlemen scode

So make it one for my baby

One more

For the road

You 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

Getting anxious to close

So thanks for the cheer

I hope you didn't mind

My bending your ear

The torch that I've found

Must be drowned

Or it's soon might explode

So make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

That long long road song road
