One For My Baby - Chantal Chamberland

It's quarter to three

There's no one in the place

Except you and me

So set them up joe

I got a little story

I think you should know

We're drinking my friend

To the end

Of a brief episode

Make it one more for my baby

One more for the road

I got the routine

I put another nickel

In the machine

Feeling so bad

Can't you make the music

Easy and sad

I could tell you a lot

But you've got to be true to your code

Just make it one more for my baby

One more for the road

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 when I'm gloomy

Oh won't you listen to me

Till it's talked away

Well

That's how it goes

And Joe I know you're getting

Anxious to close

Thanks for the cheer

I hope you didn't mind

My bending your ear

But this torch that I found

It's got to be drowned

Or it soon might explode

Make it one more for my baby

One more for the road

The long

The long road
