One for My Baby (And One More for the Road) Lyrics
One for My Baby (And One More for the Road) - Frank Sinatra with Bill Miller
Lyrics by:Harlod Arlen/Johnny Mercer
Composed by:Harlod Arlen/Johnny Mercer
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 oughta know
We're drinkin' my friend
To the end of a brief episode
So 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
Want you'd make the music
Easy 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 buddy I'm a kind of poet
And I got a lot of things to say
And when I'm gloomy
You simply gotta listen to me
'Til it's all talked away
Well that's how it goes
And Joe I know your gettin' anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind my bendin' your ear
But this torch that I found
Must be drowned
Or it soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
That long that long road
