[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 oughta 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 know 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
And one more for the road
[Bridge]
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 if I'm gloomy, you simply gotta listen to me
Until it's talked away
[Verse 3]
Well, that's how it goes
And Joe, I know you're gettin' anxious to close
Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
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
[Verse 3]
Well, that's how it goes
And Joe, I know you're gettin' anxious to close
Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
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
[Outro]
The long, long road
