One for My Baby (And One More for the Road)

(Hey John) (Yes sir?) (Come on let's have a drink) (If you insist) It's quarter to three There's no one in the place except you and me Set 'em up, Joe, You know John I've got a little story that you ought know Maybe you've heard about this We're drinking, my friend To the end of a brief episode (I'm telling you, this is what happened) Make it one for my baby And one more for the road I got the routine (Oh no, you too?) So drop another nickel in the machine Men I'm feeling so bad I wish you'd make the music dreamy and sad I Could tell you a lot (You too?) But you've got to be true to your code 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 Until it's talked away (Let's have another drink, bartender flow it up in here would you?) That's how it goes John I know your getting pretty anxious to close (John: You don't know me well then) Tony thanks for the cheer I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear 'Cause this torch that I found must be drowned or it soon might explode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road That long, long road
