One for My Baby Songtext
von Rosemary Clooney

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
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
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
Make it one for my baby
One more for the road

You'd never know it
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

Well that's how it goes
And Joe, I know you're gettin′ anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn′t mind my bendin' your ear

This torch that I found must be drowned
Or it soon may explode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

That long
Long road
