Marvin Gaye One For My Baby (and One More For The Road) Lyrics

One For My Baby (and One More For The Road) Lyrics

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

I think you should 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 know the routine, put
another nickel

In the machine

I feel kind of bad, can't you make
the music

Easy and sad

I could tell you a lot, but it'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 I'd like to say

And if I'm gloomy, please listen to
me

Till it's talked away

Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know
your gettin'

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
gotta be drowned

Or it's gonna explode

Make it one for my baby

And one more for the road
