Fred Astaire One For My Baby Lyrics

One For My Baby Lyrics

It's a 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 drinking 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 feeling so bad, I wish you'd make the music
Dreamy and
sad
Could tell you a lot, but that's not
In a gentleman's code
Make it
one for my baby 
And 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 to say
And when I'm
gloomy, you simply gotta listen to me
Until it's all talked away
Well
that's how it goes, and Joe I know you're gettin'
Ready to close
Thanks
for the beer
I hope you didn't mind
My bending your ear
Don't let it
be said
Little Freddie couldn't carry his load
Make it one for my
baby
And one more for the road
That long long road
