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 ought to 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 feeling so bad can't you make the music 
Easy and sad? 
I could tell you a lot but you got to be true to your 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 got a lotta 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 you are gettin' 
Anxious to close 
Thanks for the cheer 
I hope you didn't mind 
My bending your ear 
But this torch that 
I've found gotta be drowned 
Or it's gonna explode 
So make it one for my baby 
And one more for the road the long that long it's long
