Chris Connor - One For My Baby lyrics

{Verse 1} It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place except you and me So, set 'em up, Joe, I've got a little story you ought 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 {Verse 2} 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 you've got to be true to your code So make it onе for my baby and one more for the road {Verse 3} You'd nеver 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 just gotta listen to me Until they're tucked away {Verse 4} Well that's how it goes and Joe, I know your getting anxious to close So, thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear But this torch that I found, it's gotta be drowned or it soon might explode So, make it one for my baby and one more for the road That long, long, road
