One For My Baby - Ruth Cameron

It's a 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

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 feeling so bad

I wish you make the music

Dreaming and sad

Could tell you a lot

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 I'm a kind of poet

And I've got a lot of things

To say

And twice I'm gloomy

You simple got a 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

This torch that I've found

Must be drowned

Or it's soon might explode

Make it one for my baby

And one more for the road

When more for that love love

Road
