Lyrics One for My Baby (And One More for the Road) - Mina

It′s quarter to three,
There's no one in the place
′Cept you and me,
So, set 'em up, Joe,
I've got a little story
I think you should 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 put another nickel
In the machine;
I'm feeling so bad,
And can′t you 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′ve got a lot of things I'd like to say;
And when I'm gloomy,
Won′t you listen to me,
Till it′s talked away.
Well, that's how it goes,
And Joe, I know you′re gettin'
Anxious to close,
And thanks for the cheer,
I hope you didn′t mind
My bending your ear.
But this torch that I've got,
It′s gotta be drowned
Or it soon might explode,
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road,
The long, the long road.
