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

Bette: "Well, you know, when they asked me to come on andI can't believe it! The last, the last guest. The last fool Mr.Carson will have to suffer gladly.You are the wind beneath my wings. Oh, well he is."Quarter to three. Theres' no one in the placeexcept you and me.So set 'em up, Joe. Got a little storyI think you should know.We're drinkin', my friend, to the endof a sweet episode.Make it one for my babyand one more for the road.Got the routine. So drop another nickelin the machine.Oh, gee, I'm feelin' so bad. Wish you'd make the musicso dreamy and sad.You could tell me a lot. But it's notin a gentleman's code.Let's make it one for my babyand one more for the road.You may not know it,but buddy you're a kind of poet.And you've had a lot of things to say.And when I'm gloomyyou always listen to me,until it's talked away.Well, that's how it goes.And John I know you're gettinganxious to close.So, thanks for the cheer.I hope you didn't mind mebending your ear.For all of the years,for the laughs, for the tears,for the class that you showed,make it one for my babyand one more for the road.That long long road.
