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 got a little story you oughta know Yeah we're drinkin', my friend To the end of a brief episode Just make it one for my baby And one more for the road [Verse 2] I got a little routine So drop another nickel in this here machine I'm feelin' so bad Wish you'd make that music pretty 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 [Bridge] You'd nеver know it but buddy, I'm kind of a poet And I've got a lot of things to say, yeah And when I'm gloomy, you've simply got to listen to me Till it's all talked away, yeah [Verse 3] Well, that's how it goes and Joe, I know You're gettin' pretty anxious, anxious to close So, thanks for the cheer I hope I did bend your ear This torch that I found must be drowned Or it soon might explode, uh uh So make it one for my baby And one more for the road, mmm, for the road [Bridge] You'd really never know it but buddy, I'm kind of a poet (Got a lot of things) and I've got a lot of things (to say) to say And when I'm gloomy, you've simply got to listen to me Till it's all talked away, yeah [Verse 3] Well, that's how it goes and Joe I know you're gettin' anxious, really anxious to close So, thanks for this cheer I hope you didn't mind my bendin' your ear This torch I found, it must be drowned Or it soon might explode Oh, make it one for my baby And one more for the road One more for the road Road, road, road Mmmm (oooooh)
