Ute Lemper - One for My Baby

Its quarter to three, theres no one in this place
Except you and me
So set em up Joe, I got a little story
You wanna know
Were drinking my friend, to the end
Of a nice episode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
I got the routine, just drop another nickel
In the machine
Im feeling so bad, I wish youd make the music
Dreamy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but thats not
In a gentlemans code
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
Youd never know it, but buddy Im a kind of poet
And Ive got a lot of things to say
And if Im gloomy, you better gotta listen to me
Until its talked away
Thats how it goes, Joe I know your gettin
Anxious to close
Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didnt mind
Me bending your ear
But this torch that I found, Its gotta be drowned
Or its soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
